There's also the fact that the 2.x API is different from 1.x, to-the-date releases of FB don't support 2.x, and there is no other application in distros using SDL_perl... For the record, I've also witnessed that the bloody 1.20.3 in Debian has API differences from 1.20.0 - given that I was multiple times yelled at because after users of 1.20.3 didn't understand why FB wasn't working anymore, I want to state that changing API inside a sub-sub release is, in my very humble opinion, *bad*. I don't know if this was tels mistake only, and if it was done on purpose, but I'm curious to learn why this happened at all. To prevent from future problems and as a sign of my willingness, the upcoming new release of FB will be tested to be compatible with 1.20.0 and 2.1.3. -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://zarb.org/~gc/
