hi henrik, this was just reported to me in the debian BTS... aparently there are namespace problems with fbpager / g++ 4.1 which prevent it from compiling. one of the bug reporters was kind enough to provide a patch, which is included below in the forwarded message.
when g++ 4.1 becomes the default in debian, the severity of this
bug will be raised. sometime between now and then i will probably
include this patch as part of the debian diff if there won't
be a forthcoming version of fbpager in the meantime (please let
me know if there is though).
regards,
sean
