Re: RFS: gnotify -- a notification service for many desktop-environments and WM's



Hi,

based on your hints, I've tried to fix my bugs. Therefore, version 0.8.1
and 0.8.2 was created by me manually (the orig.tar.gz was changed
therefore; upstream maintainer has been told), so finally, I've at least
reached a small target: As far as I can see it, gnotify 0.8.2-1 is the
first that is completely lintian- and linda-clean (and completely I
mean, I do not even get warnings any more).

Kind regards,
  Simon
