Sounds good.  One "issue" that came up over the summer was that Helix version
numbers prevented upgrades from the Helix packages to future Debian archive
versions.  Has this been fixed?

The woody GNOME 1.2 source packages build on PPC too (for potato even), though
you have to ignore the gnome-core Build-Dependency on libgtkhtml-dev (the
gtkhtml package hasn't built for nearly two months, but without it gnome-help is
built using gtkxmhtml).

I'm not sure why the autobuilders haven't got there yet, though many of the
packages were missing Build-Depends lines for a long time...

Zeen,
