GNOME 2.16 in Experimental

[Jerome Warnier <jwarnier@beeznest.net>]

Hi,

I'm very pleased to see many large parts of GNOME 2.16 already in
Experimental. The speed improvement is amazing. I upgraded, and on the
two (quite old) PC I tested it on, everything seems smoother,
quicker, ...

I've noticed though some trouble to install several packages which are
already available, but not their dependencies:
# apt-get install -t experimental metacity gnome-terminal gnome-power-manager
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  gnome-power-manager: Depends: libdbus-1-2 (>= 0.62) but it is not installable
  gnome-terminal: Depends: libvte9 (>= 1:0.13.3) but it is not going to be installed
  metacity: Depends: metacity-common (= 1:2.16.2-1) but 1:2.14.5-2 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

I don't really expect anything, but felt important to let you know.
Hope it helps.
