<h1>Known Issues and Workarounds in 4.1</h1>
<p>This section describes some known issues and workarounds for using OpenLaszlo 4.1. For
various reasons, these issues are being deferred to a subsequent release. The bug number has
been provided so that you can read tthe full description. A summary is provided below.</p>

of you who have downloaded nightly trunk builds recently, you may have noticed that we changed
the numbering to 4.1 from 4.2.x. As a result, if you wish to install OpenLaszlo 4.1, you need
to delete your existing <code>/Library/Receipts/openlaszlo*</code> files first and then run
the installer.</p>
