  • 563179 – Scrollbars not resized when we extend the canvas size
  • 562459 – PF_PALETTE: ‘TypeError’ when used in a plugin that is registered in <Image>
  • 562427 – Compilation with –as-needed

Users and distributors are also encouraged to update GEGL to version 0.0.22, which has been released yesterday. The new GEGL release not only provides some nice speedups, it also features a new vector path representation infrastructure. This will eventually become used in GIMP to provide support for editable vector objects.
