Who Wrote The ESP Package Manager?

So, I forgot to set an environment variable while building some of my code and it turns out that the ESP Package Manager (EPM), specifically the version that comes with the SRC680_m211 build of OOo, has a bit of a buffer overflow in it. If your using long file names or paths that have more then 255 characters in it, you will get a nice warm and fuzzy segmentation fault. I never noticed this before. Also, apparently the newest version of EPM (4.1) fixes this bug.
Lovely.

Anyway, I’m still trying to get auto-recognition of SVG files to work. I’m lost in a sea of code. More on this later.
