Hi Gary,

thanks a lot for your notes. I will comment on the things I have answers to.

Seen that, too. Would be great if someone with an F14 non-XO build could 
check if that happens there as well.

No, I have seen no patch that has been proposed to master.

Has this been added back to the package yet as dependency?
