What about uploading lablgtk1, which does provide lablgtk and slowly
migrate the dependency on lablgtk to dependencies on lablgtk1.

The real question, is what to do about camlimages. Stefano has said he
has not much time about for it, and it is problematic.

Will we keep a camlimages1 and a camlimages2 packages, or could we just
go with a camlimages packages which builds on lablgtk2 ?

What is cameleon's exact dependency on camlimages anyway ?
