Hi there,
I'm working for about a month to remove all the old bits of gnome 1.x
from Debian for lenny. There was about 40 packages affected not so long
time ago, it's 13 now (about half were migrated or dropped the
dependency one way or the other, the other half was bitrot and removed).
David B. Harris: snac
Uwe Hermann: powershell
Matthew Johnson: gbib
Aurelien Labrosse: xwine
Chris Lawrence: gnome-lokkit
Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Peña: cheops-ng
Víctor Pérez Pereira: gfslicer
Sergio Rua: gmanedit
Alain Schroeder: gsnes9x
Marcela Tiznado: gtkgo
Guido Trotter: directory-administrator
Junichi Uekawa: soundtracker
Colin Watson: telegnome
If there is a package you love in that list, it'd be _really_ great to
send patches to migrate them to gnome2/gtk2 libraries[0]. This is a call
for help, because it requires some knowledge of gnome/gtk core libraries
for some of those.
As a side note, those packages have spurious build-dependencies on
gnome1.x libraries (and have no corresponding runtime dependencies),
bugs will be filed soon:
chbg (libgnome-dev)
digitaldj (libgnome-dev)
drivel (libart-dev)
gnomekiss (libgtkxmhtml-dev)
gretl (libart-dev)
gwc (libgnome-dev)
mrwtoppm (libart-dev)
slmon (libgnome-dev)
xpuyopuyo (libgnome-dev)
[0] note that soundtracker can drop the dependency and should do so,
but it stands for the other ones.
