version bumped.

Re: comments #1 and #2.

I wonder if this version went from passing "at least preliminary quality assurance" through testing to stable on x86 a little too rapidly still?. I've had to revert to 0.65 and mask it because it certainly doesn't work for me. 
Comment 4 ebfe 2007-03-05 07:11:45 UTC
it was indeed made stable on x86 and amd64.

any more information than 'doesn't work' ?

anyway - any more (In reply to comment #3)

File a new bug if you have an issue.  This one's about the version bump and it's done.

Yes - a whole day after the upstream release and without *any* period at all in testing  - but with what justification?

I may open a bug report if I get time but this one is not a priority for me.
