Just installed 4.1.1 on both our machines running PCLinuxOS. No problems so far but I noticed that in the desktop-integration folder there are parallel rpms for several different builds. I used the latest, 9975, which was the right one. The others should be removed.
This time I didn't need to re-install my wife's special characters macro so that she can type Finnish on a US keyboard. In the past it has disappeared. I did have to re-install Java jre, but that is probably because I'd just updated and a new version was installed.

You should ask the reason to the dev mailing list, perhaps there is a rationale behind this.

What for? It’s Linux! Let her use either the US Int’l layout or compose key sequences. No need for any macro.HowardJ wrote:Just installed 4.1.1 on both our machines running PCLinuxOS.

These extra files in the RPM were mentioned on the developer list a few weeks ago. I can't remember if there was an explanation but I think the consensus was that they will be removed on a future release.
