Here fails with same bug!

I am using xmame debianized package from "anarxia"...

With early version (0.73) all works fine, but when I update
to xmame 0.85 yesterday, gxmame dont recognize the "new" (?)
gamelist format...

In the anarxia repository I see a package xmame-tools:

Description: Tools for xmame and xmess
Various tools distributed with the xmame sources.
.
The tools are:
xml2info - Converts the new -listxml output to the old format.

Maybe new xmame versions have changed the gamelist format
and now its not compatible with gxmame ?

gxmame (CVS) needs xml2info to work with xmame 0.85. Older
versions of gxmame will not work at all. If you are using my
packages update to the latest gxmame package, install
xmame-tools and you should be fine.

I am closing this bug because the submitter did not provide
any useful information.
