+Hi John,
+the archive of the sources of the latest "stable" release (4.1.1) it's
+not available on the web site (404 error)[1]. Moreover the one coming
+from the git repo don't compile due to an error related to exiv2 (I'm
+always talking about the 4.1.1 version).
+That's why I choose the latest git revision (cloned the 2011.09.09) to
+build the package. This revision compiles and works fine but it doesn't
+match version 4.1.1 (the application itself displays "Version GIT" into
+the about box) so I've used that version numbering to allow future upgrades.
+
+Let me know if you think it's an acceptable behaviour, please.
+
+I'm fixing the spec right now, thank you for your support and your
+suggestions.
