It's making use of some deprecated functionality.... for example gnomevfs which really should be ported to the newer gvfs stuff. There are probably some pygtk/gtk-isms which need to be updated. I'm willing to carry this as downstream patches if I have to but I really don't want to do that. Less critically for basic operation... the export functionality needs love. I'm not willing to carry this as downstream patches as I view the export functionality as a nice-to-have feature and not critical. I'm more inclined to just patch it to keep export from crashing on error than actually fix the export to work as a downstream only patch. There's some subtle problems with language support... which I'm personally ill-equipped to work through as a US English speaker (and barely at that). Crasher bug and something I'm willing to hold as downstream only patches if needed. -jef On 12/11/09, Adam Williamson <awilliam@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Wed, 2009-12-09 at 12:38 -0900, Jeff Spaleta wrote: >> On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 12:26 PM, Paul W.
