PitBull Unit Frames 3.0
Please note that PitBull3 is no longer being actively developed. On top of lack of active development itself, it's based on the Rock framework which itself is no longer maintained either.
I strongly recommend that users migrate to PitBull4. You can not convert your config from PitBull3 and must reconfigure.
PitBull4 itself can be found at:
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/pitbull4.aspx
You can find guides for setting it up at:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/guide/
And the FAQ here:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/faq/
While PitBull4 is still in beta it is fully functional and has more features than PitBull3. It is actively developed on and bug fixes made regularly.
I do not plan on making any fixes to PitBull3 once Cataclysm releases. So you have plenty of time to make the migration.

Can't access the menu to change it.
Oh and tons of errors on startup or reloadui
The promise of bugfree releases to curse.com is doing so well already. Merge FTW.
This morning everything looked fine with my health and my target's health. But tonight there seems to be a problem in the LibMobHealth-4.0.lua file.

That’s what the error says.

plz help me ckknight your my only hope :P
This update was not kind to me at all. like other commenters I have lost my frames all together. I can not access the menu via /pit or /rock.
Not sure what is going on.
Well this version definitely doesn't like EnchantrixBarker, framerates were better but there was a freeze in the screen every 3 seconds. When I turned PitBull off there was no frame freezing. Should I have deleted previous versions prior to downloading this one, possible conflicts?
The lastest version is not acting right with my other addons. When I use PitBull my framerate (FPS) goes from 45 to 1, yes I said 1 FPS. I am trying to compare my FPS between using PitBull with other addons, one at a time. If I find a true conflict in addons I'll post it here.
Yeah, r1744 appears to be busted or interacting badly with something else. I can click where the frames should be and I get a translucent yellow bar that fades at the right and left. I can click on it and do normal unitframes stuff but just have a bar there.
BUT...
since the last update, I can't see any of my unit frames.
when I mouse over where it should be there's the normal glow, and the slash commands don't open up the pitbull menu...
I've deleted it (including saved variable files) and reinstalled it, but it still persists
