That's the one, yeah.

How would you feel about asking for testers on the forums, after we've
released a remote-help-assistant_0.1-1_all.deb?  It would take a long
time for me to test all those platforms with KVM, and the couple of bug
reports we've got so far raised issues that I would never have caught,
no matter which platform I was testing on.  Recruiting more testers
would give us more eyeballs as well as more configurations, and maybe
even someone willing to do the legwork on a KDE interface :)

We've already got a couple of bug reports for the stable version, so it
looks like people are using it - which is also why I'd like to get a new
version out sooner rather than later.  Dealing with the old name only
takes a couple of lines of code (if the new folder doesn't exist but the
old one does, rename it), so I've now uploaded a new version with that
in, plus your latest translations.
