This is a maintenance release that fixes linker errors with GCC 9+.
Additionally the optional dependency of libenchant for spelling suggestions has been bumped to libenchant2.so.2.
Autotool scripts have been updated to work with the latest versions of autoconf and automake.
Thanks so much for the update.
I've been frustrated trying to get Artha to compile in Manjaro KDE for a while now. Artha is such a useful utility and I've been using it for many years. I have never found anything that is a real replacement for it.

Thanks for the kind words Rod; glad that Artha is/has been useful to you.
I'll try to keep it updated to avoid these hassles in future. Feel free to report them; I'll make sure that users are unblocked.
Hi,
Thanks for the update. Unfortunately, it seems on my system (openSUSE Tumbleweed) artha crashes upon inserting any search term and hitting enter. See also https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1174960 where it was initially flagged.
I don't have a full backtrace yet (waiting for the necessary debuginfo packages to install), but here is a partial trace (from gdb) in case it helps already:
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
Full bt here (sorry, I don't see a bug tracker link, so I'm pasting it here):
Looking at the callstack, this seems like an issue in libWN.so i.e. libwordnet. Can you try searching for the string 'a' from Wordnet Browser, the GUI front end to WordNet that's supplied along with the library?
Yes, thanks! Both wn-browser and the command line interface of wordnet crashes upon any attempt to search. Any suggestions as to what may be causing this? Here's a bt:
Actually, never mind, I tracked it down to openSUSE's default flags compiling with link-time-optimization enabled. Disabling it fixed the wn crash. Again, thanks a lot for pointing me in the right direction.
Most welcome, glad that things worked out :)
I emailed you Sundaram to offer commission on new features (to your yahoo.com email address) can you reply? It was sent 3 months ago with title "offer to sponsor new feature"
