Beware, you are mixing displaylib versions. displaylibs must be the same
version as libggi2; its dependencies don't enforce this. It's mostly dpkg's
shortcoming, as it can't handle cyclic dependencies. Sorry, but 'apt-get
install libggi2' will break your ggi subsystem.

In the meantime I'll test it. Binary compatibility *should* be maintained,
but it's not quite guaranteed yet; this happens to betas sometimes.
