Sorry. Ignore that. I discovered the older version in /usr/local/bin. I

After upgrading some x11 libraries yesterday my claws-mail broke with segmentation fault. Upgrading to latest testing version fixed the issue. Believe libxcb is the culprit here. Should this be reported as a bug or will the devs be aware?

It's the startup-notification stuff that broke it, the devs are aware and
there is a bug on it.

Thanks Neil. The startup notification problem makes sense as when I tried awesome that also broke claws-mail.
