> Good, we need more reports for 2.20.

OK; here's some more feedback.  Installed on 30 Sept 07 from the tarball
on a 6.2-R-p7, xorg 7.3 system.

1. The icons for attachments for Evolution were not included.  There are
two of them.

2. gnome-art selected from the "Preferences" menu does not work.

3. The screensaver at first was not able to be loaded by a regular user.
After logging into and out of Gnome as su, I was able to load the
screensaver as user.  Using it, however, crashed the system.  Evolution
complained the most.

4.  The Tomboy icon is missing

5. nspluginwrapper has to be re-run to get the browser plugins to load.
While this is not a bug, it should be mentioned in UPDATING.

6. Documentation from the Help menus is unavailable, but may not have
been part of the tarball.

7. Evolution gives many, many warning message, some of which are
"critical."  It has crashed on me a few times, and other times it
becomes extremely unresponsive.

8. Dia is broken

9. OO.o had to be rebuilt.  Again, not a bug, but it might be worth
mentioning in UPDATING.  This could also be xorg, as I upgraded both at
nearly the same time.

10. There are no updates of Fifth Toe or Power tools yet.

11. Automatic spell checking does not work in Epiphany, though it does
in Firefox.

12. Epiphany extensions (I use Flash Blocker) broke in the upgrade. I've
not looked into this yet.

Hope this helps!

Frank
