Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the agg package. The package description is: Anti-Grain Geometry (AGG) is a general purpose graphical toolkit written completely in standard and platform independent C++. It can be used in many areas of computer programming where high quality 2D graphics is an essential part of the project. . This package contains the development files for building applications using agg. I originally packaged agg for OpenOffice.org (for using it instead the agg shipped with it) but then it turned out that agg was just included for "internal [Sun] reasons" and not used yet so I lost interest. And since agg 2.5 now became GPLed OOo can't use a new version anyway, so.. If you want to maintain agg, I've started packaging agg 2.5 (note I enabled the shared libraries; it would be wise whether the ABI changed between ((2.3 and 2.4) and 2.5) and to decide whether you really want that) Upstream doesn't support shared linking out-of-the-box and doesn't care about SONAMEs either. Be warned. My temporary agg 2.5 package(s) can be found at http://people.debian.org/~rene/agg/.
