    gattrib: Don't crash if we can't find data in the sheet. Bug #2214739
    
    Check for a -1 return from s_table_get_index() before
    using to index an array. Print ugly warnings to stderr
    and skip whatever we were doing if this is encountered.

    gattrib: Don't special-case ignore components with "graphical" attribute.
    
    It was noted that special-casing the "graphical" attribute could cause
    gattrib to crash on save (Bug #2214739).
    
    There is no real reason why the user might not want to edit a graphical
    symol's attributes with gattrib, so we should treat it like any other.

    Fixed up all icon-theme-installer files to work with non-bash
    
    Grabbed the latest icon-theme-installer files from the pcb repository
    since they have been fully patched to work with non-bash shells.  On
    my ubuntu system, /bin/sh is linked to dash which prevented me from
    running the previous version of icon-theme-installer.  This commit
    is related to a7e7a28613abe4705ec01011d0f4308ff024251b

    Updated versions to 1.4.1 in prep for the start of a new bug fix release


Looking at the changelog since its a bugfix update I think that FFe is not required

Additionally debian has fixed FTBFS

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514898

which was affecting ubuntu too(as in the case of previous updates in the suite)

(Refer: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgeda/+bug/322648 for an overview)

Builds fine on my PPA

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23145145/buildlog_ubuntu-jaunty-i386.geda-gattrib_1%3A1.4.3-2ubuntu1_FULLYBUILT.txt.gz
