Links not updating when I move a page

[Simon Wong]

The "Tip of the Day" says that if I move a page using the file tree any
links to that page will be updated, however, that is not happening.

In fact the file tree seems a tad unstable to me, I've had a few crashes
already while moving things around in a Site.

I'm using a Site that I imported from an existing website and it's
version 0.14.3 (compiled un Ubuntu Hoary).

P.S. I emailed you many moons ago about doing some doco work for you.
I'm back in the game and am trying to use SCREEM to do some "real"
website development work.  Should I be using the "stable" version or
will I be better of working with the devel version and supplying
debugging info ie is it more likely to get fixed in the 0.15.x series?

Thanks.

Make sure you move rather than copy, which requires either a middle
button drag or holding alt down to get the drag operation menu.

I have seen this not working in one case myself, and that was when there
was a space in the pathname, so this could be the case here.

2 problems can cause this.  1 a bug with gtk.  this is worked around in
0.15.x in one place, but not another as it isn't possible.  This avoids
most of the crashes for me.

The other is a problem with the link fixing code I think, I haven't
looked into it properly yet.

0.15.x series are more likely to get fixed yes.  In general the
development series is better to use, just that there is always a chance
of major breakages if large parts are modified.  The biggest planned
change will probably not be going into 0.15.x so there shouldn't be
problems.
