  smal heads up, current list is now:

$ grep-dctrl -sPackage -FBuild-Depends libgtkmm2.0-dev /var/lib/apt/lists/mad_debian_dists_sid_main_source_Sources
Package: fireflier
Package: glademm
Package: libbonobomm1.3
Package: libbonobouimm1.3
Package: patchage


  * glademm is not a problem anymore (NMUed).
  * patchage Buil-dep is useless (I see a bug is reported), could be
    NMUed.

  * fireflier FTBFS and is not maintained upstream anymore (and I'm
    pretty sure it has way better alternatives).

  * libbonobo{,ui}mm1.3 have no rdeps, and are not build-depends in the
    archive.

  I suggest we remove libbonobo{,ui}mm1.3, gtkmm2.0 and fireflier
alltogether. Reactions ?
