Hi there,

The xgnokii split has been on my TODO list for a while. Hasn't done it yet
'cause when I adopted the package maintainance[1] it was in a pretty rough
shape and I didn't have enough time to work it out. Now that I know about
your (Matthias') packages, I'll take a look at how you solved it and if it's
applicable import your ideas into the official Debian package.
(BTW, I'm CC'ing the original debian bug on this subject, just to keep track
of things, hope that's okay with you guys...)

As for the -dev package, it's there, it's just called libgnokii{2,3}-dev[2]
! :-)

Anyway, Roberto, thanks for the heads up. I can't promise I'll solve this
fast, but I can assure you it's being worked on (slower than it should,
admittedly, but it is! :-) ). In a not so distant future you should be able
to install xgnokii, without the command-line-only gnokii!

Cheers

Hello ,
well to make that clear the packages at

are no official debian or ubuntu packages.

yes i am aware that there are no xgnokii and no libgnokii-dev packages in
debian main.

> Is that a good idea to package xgnokii outside gnokii?

well for me it sounds reasonable ..... i should have created a bugreport
in
debian upstream ..... but as i wrote before this is no official package
and i
didn`t care much about a clean update path to debian or ubuntu.
(Well i see now that this was a error of estimation.)

> If it is, should not the Debian package have an xnokii package?

Well i would strongly suggest to add a xgnokii and a dev package in debian
main.
