Hi Albrecht, funny that mail got hijacked by the GMX spam filter. All others arrived. Anyway. Looking forward to OSX binaries. Will be interesting to monitor the download quota and to get feedback. Concerning the packages: I am not sure if Mac users appreciate that split. I might be wrong, but I have the impression that Mac users are even more unwilling to press more than one button installing a software than Windows users. On the other hand side it's more efficient to split. Is there a way to test for the lib package and to download/install it when missing? ...bah, let's try it with the splited packages. And if the mailing list drowns with support requests we have to spend more work. :) Oliver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ QLandkarte-users mailing list QLandkarte-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qlandkarte-users
