Hi,

gnome-common did a cleanup upstream and deprecated quite a few macros
and variables.

gnome-doc-utils removal
=======================
The gnome-doc-utils build infrastructure was removed completely along
with the following macros:

 GNOME_DOC_INIT [1]
 GNOME_COMMON_INIT [2]


deprecated variables
====================
The following variables used in gnome-autogen.sh have been declared
deprecated [3]:

 REQUIRED_GNOME_DOC_UTILS_VERSION
 REQUIRED_DOC_COMMON_VERSION
 USE_COMMON_DOC_BUILD
 FORBIDDEN_M4MACROS
 GNOME2_DIR
 GNOME2_PATH
 USE_GNOME2_MACROS

deprecated macros
=================
The following macros have also been declared deprecated:

 GNOME_COMPILE_WARNINGS [4]
 GNOME_CXX_WARNINGS [5]

Upstream has documentation at [6] with how you can fix your package and
why those particular changes were made.

According to codesearch.d.n your package gtkpod uses one of the macros or
variables so might be affected, especially once you run autoreconf. Please
update your package accordingly and forward it to upstream if possible.

If you have further question, please don't hesitate to ask.

Regards,
Michael

Hello,

I've looked for the listed deprecated macros in the gtkpod source
and this bug report seems like a (almost) false positive to me.

The only match is GNOME2_DIR which is used as an
environment-variable in autogen.sh and only optionally/conditionally
take into consideration if set. It seems like an attempt to support
systems which has gnome(2) installed in a non-standard/systemwide
location, eg. /opt/gnome2. While this could be removed, it doesn't
hurt if it stays (unused) either.

I'm thus closing this bug report.

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
