I expect that "-dev" is intended for someone who is asking the question "what packages do I need to start programming GNOME/Gtk applications?"

In the case of "-libs", I agree with you: the Debian package dependencies will take care of it. -S -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
