Due to some bug in orbit or such, GNOME in unstable only works after
workaround. And this is not a state I like to see on packages directed
for stable. I think it would justify a release critical bug if there
is none yet.
The 1.0.x set available for slink _is_ actually working. And I feel
reluctant to change anything that might negatively affect this.
I rather see this GNOME update like the regular stable tree -> be
conservative on updates. Maybe someone else has a different view on
this and is willing to uploaad and test new versions.
Ciao,
Martin
