As far as I am concerned, as a user who runs Fruit under three >GUI's for the sake of testing, of course, Fruit has NO bugs. Not from fabien point of view. He already said that fruit2.1 has search bugs that he did not fix. Read the readme of fruit2.1 that says that Fruit2.1 has search bugs. He even suggested programmers to fix one of his bugs and he is also going to fix one of their bugs. Later when people mention the fact that fruit does not solve fine70 in a short time then Fabien admitted that it is one of fruit's bugs because fine70 is solved by every program that use hash for pruning in correct way(note that I admit that Movei is not one of them).
