2.4.2 Bugs

I am having issues (along with a lot of other people I know) with errors popping up when I loot anything that drops money. It is always saying something about either "copper" or "gold" is a nil value. I've read through a lot of the forums and saw that Blizz changed one of the global libraries. Not knowing exactly what this means, I am assuming that one of the libraries used by many addons has been altered and is just causing minor problems. I also read that some of the libraries have been updated.

My question is, if I can download that library and just replace it in the addons that use it, or if I should wait for the addons that are effected to be updated by the developer/author. Normaly I am pretty patient about this sort of thing, but I have tried to disable the addon that has the error popup, but when I log back in it is just replaced by the same sort of error generated by yet another addon. It is not a big deal, just very anoying to have an error pop up every time I loot anything that drops money.

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

The libraries are all fixed now - you can updated them (or the addons that use them) from wowace, if not here.

Thanks for the info. Instead of going and getting the libraries (since it was 3 addons, with 3 different libraries that were causing problems) I was able to just go in and edit the code real quick. Simple, easy fix. Everything is working wonderfully.
