There's a new release of the eel library available. This new version of
the general-purpose library that's used by Nautilus contains some
speed-ups and bug fixes.
This new version of eel has no new requirements that are different from
the eel 1.0. Specifically, this eel will work with either librsvg 1.0.0 or
librsvg 1.0.1 and with either Nautilus 1.0.3 or Nautilus 1.0.4.
Even though Nautilus will work with either the old or new version,
Nautilus users should get an updated eel for best results. Packagers may
want to create Nautilus 1.0.4 packages that request eel 1.0.1, since it
has bug fixes that help Nautilus users.
Summary of the changes since 1.0:
Speed up drawing of solid backgrounds. (Alex Larsson)
Speed up handling of default fonts. (Alex Larsson)
Switched from Alt to Control for list view key bindings to
match changes in Nautilus and Sawfish. (John Harper)

Improve handling of URIs and escaped characters. (Darin)
Fix some return_if_fails that were incorrect. (Darin, Ramiro)

including more self check machinery. (Ramiro)
The source code tarball will be available on the ftp.gnome.org server in
the usual place as soon as the next update happens.
