I was using 0_9_30_fixes from SVN on Linux. Then I've installed 0.9.30 (release) on a fresh Windows install, and opening the project failed because of extra properties on some lfm files. Apparently the SVN version was using a "ScrollWidth" property for ListBox (in the lfm file) but the released version does not support that. I've managed to remove them and it worked. Is that supposed to happen -- i.e. should a bugfix create a new property?

Basically you should not see such changes between 0.9.30 release and 0_9_30_fixes. The fixes branch should contain only bug fixes. r.30138 however introduces a property yet it was applied to fixes branch. Maybe the property was needed to fix something.

The change is forward compatible but not backward compatible. I hope it is not causing much trouble.

The extra properties were removed, no problem.
Now I'm using the release on both (virtual) machines.
