Comment 14 for bug 246774

Hmm, I compiled the salasaga-0.8.0.alpha5 on Ubuntu 8.10 kernel 2.6.27-11-generic and there is no improvement in relation to the Fade In/Out bug.
All requirements for Alpha-5 are met, but no dice, sorry!

But I tested the 4 bugs you listed:

#249182: No luck reproducing this after 6 different tries, so I appears to be fixed.

#246786: Tried this one with different PNG saves 8 and 24/alpha, without any problems, so this also appears to be fixed.

#301067: Ironically, Help now clings on to the rest of the menu.

#315731: This one is bad, really bad. Tried changing zoom level 5-6 times before it hit, which it did without remorse, slowly crashing my laptop. Nothing could prevent it, as it just drained the power. Had to cut off the power!
No log anywhere, so I tried running salasaga -d > salasaga.debug to capture sdtout in case of another crash. But after 12-15 times resulting in nothing, I tried without -d and sure enough it crashed again. Only entry in salasaga.debug is:
 Debugging mode, errors will be shown on stdout.

 Program path: 'salasaga'

 Directory base: '.'

 Icon path: //usr/local/share/salasaga/icons/72x72

 Path to mouse pointer image: //usr/local/share/salasaga/icons/scalable/pointers/standard.svg

 Path to toolbar 'Capture Screenshots' icon: '//usr/local/share/salasaga/icons/scalable/capture.svg'

It smells like a for/while loop running wild!

At this time I will have to find some other software for my projects, but I will keep on trying Salasaga, as it's potential is interesting.
