I have a hard time imagining that RepoForge would ship a pre-1.4.6 and label it 1.4.7, and the spec file I grabbed from there indicates the 1.4.7 source package.<div><br><div><div>On Aug 18, 2012, at 2:38 AM, Tobias Oetiker wrote:</div><blockquote type="cite"><div>Yesterday Jo Rhett wrote:<br><br><blockquote type="cite">So I am curious.
