Usertags: transition
Another GNOME transition. For this one we have to wait till mid-March or so
for gnome-desktop3 3.11.91 or .92 (beta and RC respectively), but I'm
opening this now as I just rebuilt all the rdeps, and to let you know so we
can plan in advance. The affected packages are:
binnmu-able:
cheese
cinnamon
eog
epiphany-browser
evolution
gnome-clocks
gnome-color-manager
gnome-contacts
gnome-documents
gnome-font-viewer
gnome-panel
gnome-screensaver
gnome-session
gnome-shell
gnome-shell-extensions
nautilus
need sourceful uploads for API changes in gnome-desktop3:
gnome-settings-daemon
gnome-control-center
Unrelated FTBFS, needs to be fixed and can (probably) be binnmu'ed if
that FTBFS is fixed before the transition starts:
nemo (#740119)
Unnecessary build dependency on libgnome-desktop-3-dev, doesn't need
a binnmu:
nautilus-open-terminal (#740136)

Emilio

This needed a few days to finish as bluez had some RC bugs, but those were fixed
and everything has migrated now.
Closing.
