Here's something I should really have announced on this list:

Build logs are now available!  Look at:
<http://voltaire.debian.org/buildd/buildlogs/<sourcepackage>/latest>

Gnome-core, it tells me, is waiting on "libgtkhtml-dev".  That comes
from gtkhtml, which waits on libcapplet-dev, from control-center.  That
is in turn waiting on libglade-gnome0-dev (>= 0.13-2), from libglade. 
At last attempt (a while ago), libglade utterly failed to build. 
Currently, it doesn't build because libbonobo-dev is not installable.

libbonobo-dev is not installable because bonobo is out of date, I
think, and possibly because gnome-print is out of date.  In turn,
bonobo is not built because it has an unsatisfiable build dep on
gnome-print, because gnome-print is out of date.  It looks to me like
gnome-print didn't build because of a gdk-pixbuf dependency somewhere.

In fact, it all comes back to a missing build dependency in
gnome-print (libgdk-pixbuf-dev)!  I -hate- doing this, but I'm going to
force the issue and build it myself.

Vincent, mind fixing this?  Meanwhile, I've uploaded a new (binary)
gnome-print.  It may take a few days to propogate the dependency chain,
but the rest of gnome should build now.
