Hello, Bruno,

I can commit the libao bug as solved, then, on bugzilla :-)?
Sorry for not having done my job of reproducing the bug, but I haven't
got my MDK9.2 cd's yet. They should arrive at the end of the month, I
believe.

a small glitch that reminds of the old gnomecanvas refresh bug.

However, if you remember where it is, you can click on it to quit
gcompris. I can't reproduce the pattern to get this bug yet. It just
happens after returning to the main menu from time to time.

Also, it seems I have made a mistake when doing the finnish translation.
When doing a line feed in the fi.po file, it seems that you have to use
a special character like \n. (If one of the translators can confirm
that, I'd be grateful). A normal line feed when using kbabel doesn't
seem to do it. At least, in the finnish translation, when there are
multiple lines, everything is displayed on one line, and the end of the
line is thus unreadable since it's out of bounds. Can you give me until
the end of the week to correct that before releasing PRE4?

As for libssl and libcrypto, is there no way to drop these dependencies
if they are not used?  Or make them less strict? Even though there's a
workaround, it can be frustrating for new users on older platforms. Of
course, if it depends on the Gnome libraries, I understand it doesn't
depend on you.

Amicalement,

Rami
