Thank you very much for providing this packages.
I am using OpenSuse 11.3 myself, but at the moment I am having trouble
with the cairo/pixman based rendering. (Segmenation fault in pixman
do_composite)
As cairo is now the default backend, this may affect other people as
well. Does it work for you?
Cheers
Fred
