Sure. In both the tar.gz and the .deb, it does not communicate with
the PG2C, yet does fine with version 1.7, same cable and computer.
I wrote to the author and tried a number of his suggestions but found
nothing that corrected the non-communication problem.
As 1.7 works OK, I hope that more reports about the picprog-1.8/PG2C
combination might help in finding if the problem is here or with the
new version.
