I suspected that might be the case.  Not a big deal, I'm just feeding 
back stuff to your team as I find it, big or small.

Thanks, that sounds good.

When Debian/Ubuntu upgrade their packaging tools so that tar.bz2 works 
"out of the box" in future, we'll let you know, so that you can stop 
making the releases in tar.gz format at that point, if you wish.  I know 
that direct packaging support for tar.bz2 has been discussed, and it 
seems that Dmitrij is more up to date on progress with that than I am, 
so maybe this will really happen before BibleTime 1.8 is released -- 
time will tell!
