and that same day i installed the new version, but was not able to
update the catalogue repository (mechanism failure at the server). so i
forgot to send this mail ... even when the catalogue repository was
mended.

so, 4 days late ...

thanks for the upload.

needless to say, the catalogue entry has now done all the changing it's
going to do, from this update.
