I updated a few packages in the WebUpd8 main PPA as well as in the Unstable PPA so I though I'd let you know what's going on.
gThumb 2.11.6 was released - there aren't major new features just some small ones such as the ability to sort by path. A full list of changes can be found @ Gnome Announce mailing list.
I don't know if you noticed this, but we've updated the gThumb 2.11.5 package with support for Clutter - Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx only. With the new gThumb 2.11.6, we've compiled both the Lucid and Maverick packages with Clutter - this means you can get some fancy slideshow effects. To use it, in gThumb go to Edit > Extensions and enable the Slideshow extension. Then, under Edit > Preferences you should have a new "Slideshow" tab where you can set the transition effect.
Thanks to Guido for the Clutter tip!
Unfortunately for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala users, gThumb 2.11.5 will be the last version they will be able to update to. Starting with gversion 2.11.6, gThumb requires gtk+-2.0 >= 2.20.0 and Karmic comes with GTK+ 2.18.3, so we'll no longer provide gThumb updatesfor Ubuntu Karmic users.
In case you're not using our PPA, add it and install gThumb 2.11.6 for Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx or 10.10 Maverick Meerkat (or gThumb 2.11.5 for Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala) using the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gthumbWe also provide a separate PPA for gThumb only.
