Hi Yaakov, > Thanks for uploading, but I think you missed the setup.hint for > gnome-common, could you check and upload again if necessary?
Fixed. GNOME category: > | No, I don't think we need it. Put it in X11 and others?

I still think we need a GNOME category. Yes, sounds reasonable to me. Ask the maintainer... SQLite: > | It was a request from Jari.

Or you may ask Reini, > | he has also lot of packages, but he wants to contribute this GIS stuff > | and this needs sqlite too. Maybe we should provide two packages, > | sqlite2 and sqlite3, IIRC 2 & 3 versioned releases they are incompatible. > I built sqlite-2.8.x for use in my libgda, so if you need someone for > sqlite2 that would be pretty easy for me. Can both be installed in > parallel? Yes, can both be installed. Must do it like with BDB2/3/4 then because of the headers and import libs, but it works. Jari replied, I sent my pactches. Is sqlite2 required for libgda or does it work with sqlite3 too? If not we should skip sqlite2. > | Or send me your READMEs?

Nautilus: > | I'll try that. The nautilus problem is known, just no idea yet what to do > | about the XKB errors. > Haven't yet got that far. Nautilus 2.4 was different, they use now gnome-vfs stuff to get the available mounts, probably the fix needs to be placed in gnome-vfs.

We don't introduce bugs, do we? Gerrit -- =^..^=
