There's no reason to file a new bug report for the same issue, if you want to discuss the severity of the old bug report or add new information (which is not the case here), you can of course send a mail to that existing bug report. regards, guillem -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
