The current version is 0.9.8-1 (fairly old, the upstream release is 0.9.9), and there hasn't been an update for sid for quite some time. I'm on git (last updated in ~late august), and I've had no problems whatsoever. Integration with GVFS and authentication has also gotten a lot better. PCManFM Releases: 0.9.9 - August 2011 - this version works fine 0.9.8 (SID) - October 2010 - this is the version that's having bugs 0.9.7 (Squeeze) - May 2010 - this version works but isn't as nice in handling removable media. I was using this and apt pinning until I upgraded from source. -- rbmj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
