I am sorry, while I support the idea of 1.6.4 release, I simply don't have the time to help with that. As Boudewijn mentioned it there have been bug fixes in krita/1.6, but also some regressions, and some patches I have seen that I consider harmfull (while I have commented on them when I saw them, as far as I can see no real action has been taken to correctly solve those issue) so as far as krita is concerned a 1.6.4 release should use krita/1.6.3. -- Cyrille Berger _______________________________________________ koffice-devel mailing list koffice-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/koffice-devel
