Hi John,
the archive of the sources of the latest "stable" release (4.1.1) it's
not available on the web site (404 error)[1]. Moreover the one coming
from the git repo don't compile due to an error related to exiv2 (I'm
always talking about the 4.1.1 version).
That's why I choose the latest git revision (cloned the 2011.09.09) to
build the package. This revision compiles and works fine but it doesn't
match version 4.1.1 (the application itself displays "Version GIT" into
the about box) so I've used that version numbering to allow future upgrades.

Let me know if you think it's an acceptable behaviour, please.

I'm fixing the spec right now, thank you for your support and your
suggestions.
