Re: ANNOUNCE: gnome-games 2.5.6

[Rexford Newbould <newbould ece arizona edu>]

Can I sneak in another mahjongg layout under the wire?  Patch is
attached, based on 2.5.6.  I've played it extensively, and the
solubility checker is happy with it (and all previous ones I
submitted too).

Later (once I clean it up), I will send in a patch I found useful to
mahjongg, which adds a lot of default sanity-checking to the gconf
gets/sets.  When changing tilesets/layouts/etc, especially to ones that no
longer exist, the gconf key set to the wrong item will stop mahjongg from
starting--usually with a segfault.

Cheers,
Rex
