Sure Ali, have a look at bug #15814.  I even did the leg work to find out
at which version it broke.

Hi Roger,

That is on the TO-DO list for 6.7.8 (and we have a culprit update already, so we know where to apply a fix).

Hi Roger,
We'd be keen to receive bug reports on the key features you rely on that
are breaking down, if you're willing to elucidate, or if you have already
done so, what bugs other than the aforementioned speed issue are affecting
you.

You'd be in good company if you did:  Richard Stallman himself used to
sell floppies containing the GNU utilities, all of them distributed
under
the GNU Public License he'd invented.  After all, he incurred costs in
material and time to make those floppies, and felt those costs should
be
covered to allow him to continue doing so.

Still, it may be not only less expensive for you but also a benefit to
the
user to encourage them to download from livecode.com, if only to help
ensure they're getting the most recent version.  At the current pace of
releases, any batch of CDs is likely to be outdated within just a
couple
weeks after manufacture.

My earliest experiences with Linux distros came from CDs attached to
"Linux
Format" magazine, which followed many of the awesome game CDs and
floppies
which were attached to "Amiga Format" magazine.  Those were great times,
and great discs!

I'd like to think that downloading the latest version would be equal to
getting the best version, but with the speed hit, and key features that I
use breaking down, I wouldn't use anything past 6.7.5.  But bugs that
affect my work don't necessarily affect others as much.
