Hmm... perhaps the wording was not the best. The intrusive change was 0.80.0-4; in 0.80.0-4 I changed the libpng depencency and that change was caught in the middle of the freeze (that is, -4 got into testing, but other packages recompiled against this version didn't). The changes from -5 just prevent the problem from happening again. I haven't got any reports from other packages stating that -5 broke something, but I'll understand if you err on the safe side. The change in -4 broke wdm, AFAIK. That's the reason for -4woody1. -- Marcelo | Item 29: Avoid returning "handles" to internal data [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Scott Meyers, Effective C++
