Moore II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 23 Oct 2000 16:28:00 -0700 This is the first one I used. qt2.2 (2:2.2.1-9) unstable; urgency=low * More opengl cleanup * Removing i18n patches as they are causing problems in some apps -- Ivan E. Moore II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Wed, 01 Nov 2000 23:00:00 -0700 Here the problems went away. (...) qt2.2 (2:2.2.1-10) unstable; urgency=low * New i18n patches (Closes: #75830) -- Ivan E.

Moore II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thu, 16 Nov 2000 02:00:00 -0700 ... and came back. Bart
