Because I was about to file a bug report (just filed it - see my other email
with subject " RE: Missing blank lines in a GtkLabel") and I wanted to check
if the problem happens in Linux  with the same versions that I was seeing it
with in Windows. As it turned out it's a bug in Pango 1.22 and the
repositories still have Pango 1.20.

Worst case, if I was to screw up it up by installing incompatible versions
"yum reinstall" should get it back to an operable state.
