Well, let's see.
libgnome2-print-perl should be a worthy replacement for libgnome-print-perl.
That was simple.
libgtk2-html2-perl is clearly planned to be the replacement for libgtkhtml-perl,
but it's currently only in experimental, at version 0.04-1. So I guess it's not
ready yet. And it appears not to have been touched in nearly two years upstream.
:-(
(Incidentally, I am impressed at the list of well-maintained packages Marc 'HE'
Brockschmidt has.)
The popcon count on libgtkhtml-perl is 5 installations, 2 votes (votes meaning the
package was actually used recently). These are the lowest numbers of the packages
generated from libgtk-perl source.
If you still want to keep generating that package, kudos to you, but please consider
adopting gtkhtml if you do so. And possibly libcapplet as well.
