Agree, if we were debian that configures everything as ready-after-install/upgrade stuff, it would be useful. At this moment, web packages are not useful at all. > Remove gaim (pigdin is already in) Wasn't it dead? pacman -Ss gaim shows just pidgin > bittornado (in favor of deluge, ktorrent) Just like the gtk-gnutella thingy... > Hmh, that's what i've found.

We have 3 versions of gtkmm: one for gtk 1.x, one for gtk2<=2.2 and one for the correct gtk2. These had its reasons for getting imported, but as we're cleaning up anyways... Another one: sodipodi. This is no longer developed and got forked some years ago as inkscape. Inkscape has regular releases and gets better on every new release, where sodipodi stays as it is. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
