Re: Screen artifacts on GUI applications

[Fred Kiefer]

Hi Sarah,

Riccardo is correct here. You are using a very recent version of cairo that is 
fixing a bug that GNUstep back has a workaround for. We only disabled that 
workaround in the SVN trunk of GNUstep, but didn't do a release since then. I 
will try to get a release out in the next few weeks and arch Linux seems to be 
fairly quick in catching up with new stuff.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Fred

On the road
