I hope you've filed a bug to request that those libraries
be put back.
I could use libpaper as well; the

Do you know libmikmod is needed?
can't think of a faster way to make developers give up on our

As someone whose year-long OLPC-specific project (SimCity) was broken
by Sugar interface changes right before the 650 release, I can report
that it was pretty disheartening. Both the sound and the running
