gscan2pdf 0.9.28 released

I have released gscan2pdf v0.9.28, A GUI to produce a multipage PDF or
DjVu from a scan.

The full changelog is below, but the main improvement is that
gscan2pdf can now use the SANE API directly, rather than using
scanimage or scanadf (which are still supported). The new interface,
libsane-perl (selected via Preferences/Frontend), allows gscan2pdf to
support any option offered by the SANE backend.

Source code, RPM and deb packages are available at
http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/

Please test!

* + Rescan devices.
  Closes 2433654 (gscan2pdf loses USB scanner connection after replugging)
* Fix JPEG compression for TIFF, broken in 0.9.27, changeset 60f40d2c0cf4
* Display any errors from tiffcp
* Fix TIFF compression in PDF
  Closes Debian bug #506150 (gscan2pdf: pdf creation failes when using
LZW compression)
* Rename scanimage.pl and scanadf.pl to scanimage-perl and scanadf-perl
  to fix lintian warnings about .pl suffices.
* + Progress bar for scanadf frontend
* + Renumber selected pages
* + adf-mode. Closes 2533708 (Duplex ability not recognized)
* Catch "sane_read: Operation was cancelled" message
  Closes Debian bug #512758 (Error handling: 'Unknown message:
"scanimage: sane_read: Operation was cancelled"')
* Print 'Document feeder out of documents' message

ANNOUNCE: krb5-auth-dialog 0.9.1

What is it?
===========
krb5-auth-dialog is a tray applet for the GNOME desktop that monitors
and refreshes your Kerberos ticket. It pops up reminders when the ticket
is about to expire.

It features ticket autorenewal and supports pkinit.

What's changed in 0.9?
======================
* add DBus service so applications can make krb5-auth-dialog check if the user
  has a valid Kerberos ticket and if not let krb5-auth-dialog get one
  (prompting for the password if necessary).
* grab the keyboard when the dialog is open, avoids typing the password
  accidentally into other apps
* watch the credentials cache via a file monitor. Speeds up notifications when
  the ticket cache gets modified by other applications
* add a preferences capplet
* make ticket flags like renewable, forwardable, proxiable configurable
* make pkinit anchors configurable
* bug fixes and cleanups

Where can i get it?
===================
krb5-auth-dialog is available at:
http://download.gnome.org/sources/krb5-auth-dialog/0.9/

[ANNOUNCE] PyGTK 2.15.0 - unstable

A new unstable development release of the Python bindings
for GTK+ has been released.

The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org and its mirrors
as soon as its synced correctly:

   http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygtk/2.15/

Blurb:

GTK+ is a toolkit for developing graphical applications that run on
systems such as Linux, Windows and MacOS X. It provides a comprehensive set
of GUI widgets, can display Unicode bidi text.  It links into the Gnome
Accessibility Framework through the ATK library.

PyGTK provides a convenient wrapper for the GTK+ library for use in
Python programs, and takes care of many of the boring details such as
managing memory and type casting.  When combined with PyORBit and
gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.

Like the GTK+ library itself PyGTK is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is
suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications.  It
is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose
scripts up to large full features applications.

What's new since 2.14.1?
   - Update pygtk to use numpy instead of Numeric
      (Josselin Mouette, Brian Cameron, #397544)
    - Update the address of the FSF (Tobias Mueller, #577154)
    - Wrap gtk_builder_add_objects_from_string and

GLib 2.21.0 released

GLib 2.21.0 is now available for download at:

  ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/2.21/
  http://download.gnome.org/sources/glib/2.21/

md5 sums:
c16fa4b14816c83eaccca87528895481  glib-2.21.0.tar.bz2
b1870e8e6f1d6583737bbb00d8c03c66  glib-2.21.0.tar.gz

7a7d15f7624c91a95a35f0d0c2752258d182efb8  glib-2.21.0.tar.gz

This is the first development release leading up to GLib 2.22.

Notes:

 * This is unstable development release. While it has had
  a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs
  remaining to be found. This release should not be used
  in production.

 * Installing this version will overwrite your existing
  copy of GLib 2.20. If you have problems, you'll need
  to reinstall GLib 2.20.

 * GLib 2.22 will be source and binary compatible with
  the GLib 2.20 series; however, the new API additions
  in GLib 2.21.0 are not yet finalized, so there may
  be incompatibilities between this release and the final

ANNOUNCE GCalctool 5.27.1

The GCalctool team is proud to announce the first unstable GNOME 2.26 release.

This release has the following changes from 5.26:

    * Convert Glade UI to GtkBuilder UI (Robert Ancell, David King, Bug #556807)

    * Fix display on startup to be replaced on entry (Robert Ancell,
Bug #576975)

    * Make GConf schemas translatable (Robert Ancell, Bug #571948)

    * Replace MP number arrays with an MPNumber structure (Robert Ancell)

    * Tidied up error messages (Robert Ancell, Bug #521184)

    * Tidied up GConf schema, use native GConf types (Robert Ancell,
Bug #493946)
      This will cause the gconf schema to be incompatible with
gcalctool < 5.26.0.
      Expect settings to reset to defaults when upgrading.  Switching between
      versions will cause resets.

    * Fix missing license text in about dialog (Robert Ancell, Bug #579174)

    * Updated translations: es (Jorge Gonzalez), et (Ivar Smolin)

The release is available from:
