Hi,

The current version (from bzr) has been uploaded to Hardy today and will
be available on archive.u.c in the next few hours.

It includes the UI fixes (removing the ICA icon, disabling the help
bubble by default and removing the "no configuration directory" message)
and better commands for logout, reboot and shutdown (for gnome and kde).

The package also creates the different keys at install time and set the
file permissions (admin group having write access on them).

Another upload will be done a bit later including the LTSP launchers
(for ICA and iTalc) running ICA on the right different ports depending
on the thin client IP and generating a .xml config file from the list of
currently connected clients.
