Is that MyGui?

I plan to switch ogre-1.9 to 1.55 soon, specially if it's the one for
next stable, or perhaps wait a bit to see if it's bumped again before
the freeze.

But it takes a bit of time, disk space (several GBs) of which I don't
have much at the moment, and probably binNMUs to reverse dependencies
just in case that something like that bug happens again (ogre-1.9
compiled with 1.55 and rdeps having been compiled with 1.54 from the
previous versions forced by ogre-1.9 could cause a problem similar to
the previous bug).


Cheers.
