Should be good now.

Ouch, you should really move forward from 8.1.2. I thnk it's up to .13 now. :)

I believe that I fixed these warnings in 1.3. It wasn't backported but looks like @TheWitness has covered it. 8.1/8.2 isn't fully supported in 1.2.x.

Found a few more in the installer based on check all pages this morning.
