No, this was meant honestly as a compliment. Unfortunately there are some users out there (not here :-)), who don't think for themselves.

Great! That was what we wanted to hear first. Like: "Okay, guys it works now, however the version is 1.5.0 - is that a packaging error?"

What I really wanted with my previous mail was to tell you that we had not all necessary information to help you.

You had a problem, we made a suggestion to solve it.

You come with another problem as a reply to the same thread.

And I ask myself:

- Is it related?
- Is the original problem now solved?
- Do you still need help with the original problem?

Before I had not these questions solved, I can only guess what might help you now, which is frustrating, because it gives lots of time into possibly wrong paths.

For example: I wondered if an old package might still be installed, if the installation did not work, and so on ...

Which would have all been wrong conclusions.

Ah, you can change that to 2.1.0 easily.
