Makes sense now.  Recently I hneed libwebp 0.5.1 for kingbeowulf's not-
yet-submitted BOINC SlackBuild so might wait until it updates, or might
test rebuilding notepadqq and reinstall.

I'd like to see notepadqq replace KATE, which has inadequate/broken tab
bars.

Except for year, it was the same.  The year looked too old (2007) so I
reinstalled that package then successfully built open-adventure.  I
have no idea what SlackBuild would've installed an old version.

My replies didn't show up on Gmane earlier.  I guess it's still read-
only?
