I hear you omegaone37. I actually would rally like to make the ukmp a smooth experience for the end users. The thing is that opensource developers seldom have the time to really do proper testing, thus it's the users who have to test, give feedback, and then we'll / I can fix the problems. I hate this model and I suppose this is why so many linux distros have every other release as stable and every other as unstable.

Anyway, I really appreciate that you tell me your concerns and problems with the software.

As to why the ukmp and uktube are bundled together. It has been related to a packaging problem that I had, which I have just today fixed. So, maybe in the near future they will be separate. However, as to the unnecessary size, well, uktube takes 20 kilobytes of space. So, it's really not too bad. Also, if you have ever used it, it's way better than the browser for watching youtube videos.

Thanks for the feedback! I have just made a new version 1.61-test.
It *may* fix your problem. At the very least it should give better debug information.

This version should also fix issues with PIL in case people haven't upgraded to the latest version of python yet.

Can you guys have a quick test and see if this one fixes the issues you were having. Thanks!
