ABI changes in gnomeVFS 2.16



Hi,

before uploading gnome-vfs2 2.16.0 to experimental, I've noticed that a
few functions were removed from the public interface and moved to
libbonobo.

Here is the list of affected packages:
        evolution: /usr/lib/evolution/2.6/components/libevolution-mail.so
        guile-gnome0-vfs: /usr/lib/guile-gnome-0/libgw-guile-gnome-gnome-vfs.so.0.0.0
        libgnomemm-2.6-1c2: /usr/lib/libgnomevfsmm-2.6.so.1.0.8
        python-gnome2: /usr/lib/python-support/python-gnome2/python2.3/gtk-2.0/gnomevfs.so
        python-gnome2: /usr/lib/python-support/python-gnome2/python2.4/gtk-2.0/gnomevfs.so
        mozilla-bonobo: /usr/bin/mozilla-bonobo-viewer

Happily, all these packages all depend on libbonobo as well, because
they are also linking to it. One of the reasons for the move is that it
these functions are only needed by applications also using libbonobo.

I was thinking of uploading the new libgnomevfs2-0 package with a
conflict on libbonobo2-0 (<< 2.16). This way, these packages shouldn't
break.

As we want to push GNOME 2.16 into etch if it works correctly, I'd like
approval from the release team before going further.
