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. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
