Package: gtg
Version: 0.2.4-4
Severity: minor
Hello,
gtg is one of the few packages which still requires python-gnome2.
This, and libgnome itself has been deprecated for a while in favor of
just using GTK.
It looks like the only place in gtg which uses the "gnome" python
module is /usr/share/gtg/GTG/tools/openurl.py, which already handles a
missing "gnome" module gracefully. It is also not the first choice:
def openurl(url):
if _has_xdg: # freedesktop is the best choice :p
return _spawn_quiet('xdg-open', url)
elif _has_gnome: # shouldn't also check for gnome-open ?
return _gnome.url_show(url)
elif _has_exo: # for xfce
return _spawn_quiet('exo-open', url)
# add your favorite desktop here ;)
So perhaps you can replace python-gnome2 with a "Recommends: xdg-utils"?
Thank you for considering,
Martin
