Fonty Python 0.3.4

[Donn]

Well, hello all,
I have rushed to get 0.3.4 out the door before the power (and net) cuts off
again. I am pretty bushed now and I hope I didn't muck it up.

There's a new tool to let users 'check' for fonts that cause crashes - which
is optional and can be used from the gui as well as the command-line.

The app now runs on LANG=C, which should make Kartik happy :)

Please let me know about any errors (send the output from a console, as well
as your locale (echo $LANG) and other info you can think of)

The translations are lagging behind the code now, they need work.

Right, brain shutting down for the day.

Excellent work! yeppppie. I am so happy!! It works fine now (installs,
build the package and works..)

One more suggestion from my lazy mind: Changelog file should mention
separately from README.

Take this suggestion as fully optional :)

It's not reality that's important, but how you perceive things.

Phew! I can't say that enough times :D

Yeah, the surrounding files are quite hard to keep up-to-date. I forgot the
latest changelog in the 0.3.4 version :(

I'm not sure what you feel, but I'd like a *little* more testing done before
0.3.4 is released to the Debian/Ubuntu repos. Otherwise, is it still possible
for people to roll-back to the 0.2.0 version?

Oh, and the translation files are very out of date, and you'll have to do your
magic on the man page again.

And, I have not done an icon or .desktop file yet -- the fire set me back, and
we had another one break out across the road today! It's fire-season it
seems.

Thanks for your input.

Sure. The upcoming Fontypython version by default goes to 'unstable' in
Debian and then to upcoming Ubuntu 'hardy' (if we will make it in some
time..).

Sure. I will check the manpage and send it to list.

Its not that much important but, users will love it!

And take care. I am praying to 'Fire God' for you.

Ah, the picture becomes a little clearer here and there. I hope we make it
too.

Thanks.

Ha :D If I'm the target of the gods' rage then I can expect other calamities
any day now :)
