Source: topshelf Version: 0.3.1-1 Severity: serious User: pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: applets-transition
Hi, this package currently uses python-gnomeapplet (although it didn't declare such a package dependency!), most likely because it provides an applet for the GNOME panel. python-gnomeapplet has been dropped from the archive and replaced by gir1.2-panelapplet-4.0 and PyGObject. The transition of gnome-panel 3.0 is currently ongoing. In this version, the libpanel-applet library has undergone large changes, and topshelf requires changes to support this version: * updating to the D-Bus activation mechanism * porting to GTK+ 3 * porting to PyGObject You might want to check if upstream developers provide a new version, compatible with gnome-panel 3.x. Otherwise, porting is a feasible task if you have a pair of hours to spare. If you feel like it, the following guides should help you: * http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk-migrating-2-to-3.html * http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/AppletsDbusMigration For packages that provide other functionality than the GNOME applet, you can simply disable it in the build and remove the build-dependency if it hasn’t been ported. For pure applets packages, you should ask for removal from the archive if you do not intend to port it to the new interface. Such packages that have not been ported when gnome-panel is ready to migrate will be kicked out of testing.
