[Sorry for not being much active in the discussion before, but I have
 had many problems with the new]

 I also took contacts with Guarrigue in order to package lablgtk both
 for RedHat and Debian, but then I did a quick RedHat package and I was
 waiting for more time to look at the Debian one. He said to me that
 there were no problems in changing the license into that of OCaml.

 By the way,

 1) Now the new snapshot has been released. In the previous one the
    Makefile did not install the .h files. These, too, were greatly
    incomplete, so that it was very difficult to add new widgets
    without messing with Guarrigue's code. I hope the problems have
    been solved.
 2) I would really prefere three packages: one for the bare lablgtk binding,
    one for the GtkXMHTML widget and one for LablGL. In the Makefile of
    Guarrigue they are all messed together.
 3) When the package will be available, I will try to package another
    binding for another widget: http://www.cs.unibo.it/helm/software/mml-widget

 This would really help providing the bindings for both (I tried for the
 mml-widget , an then I gave up on mlgtk, but I would be happy to start again).

					Hope it helps,
