I fix about five bugs in wxMaxima a week. Reporting a bug to debian costs at least one week of work and wxMaxima is using enough of wxWidget's functionality that it has the potential of being a near-ideal bug detector for wxWidgets => If I can work around a bug I do that instead of reporting it. Else we would need a bigger team for supporting wxMaxima. > Oh, and perhaps a wxDC::Clear() issue which upstream closed but > you claimed still isn't working.

As there have been no new bug reports after the wxMaxima version from July was uploaded I am rather curious if any of the problems I've encountered are likely to materialize on other computers. Perhaps I have managed to transform my system into a quite complete test case somehow - which isn't bad as until now I've been able to reproduce (and in most cases to resolve) all bug reports I got for wxMaxima. Kind regards, Gunter.
