These are the issues I've found so far:


   - Epiphany Web Browser uses "User" directory as default for downloads,
   it should
   use "Downloads" instead.
   - Changes made to the user image in "System → Preferences → About me"
   shows when
   closing the user sessions, but doesn't persist after rebooting (the
   system login screen
   keeps displaying the default "silver person" user image).
   - I couldn't open Gnumeric help. I get this error:

       Couldn't load the page
       The requested URI «ghelp:gnumeric» is not valid


   - Is it necessary to have "Xsane" and "Simple scan"? I've had a good
   experience with
   the latter; I think the "Xsane" GUI is kind of overwhelming.
   - Abiword freezes every time I select any option in the help menu
   (except the "About Abiword" option).



I've been testing installing and using the software I use regularly, and
everything works great so far.
I'll be doing more testing this week and report back any issues I find.


Thanks for all the hard work!
