Re: Screen artifacts on GUI applications

[Sarah]

Hi Ivan,

I'm currently running Arch Linux. I've installed everything through 
either the package manager or AUR, so I'm basing what I know off of the 
validity of the information from there. The versions for the packages 
that I have installed from it are:

% yaourt -Q | grep gnustep
community/gnustep-back 0.24.0-1 (gnustep-core)
community/gnustep-base 1.24.6-2 (gnustep-core)
community/gnustep-gui 0.24.0-3 (gnustep-core)
community/gnustep-make 2.6.6-1 (gnustep-core)

Looking at the gnustep-back package information, it appears to require 
cairo, which I have at 1.14.0.

I hope this helps.
