It's all about glibc and gcc (well, there's also perl doing some nasty stuff to some dependencies of gnome-pilot, like pilot-link, IIRC) after all. It does, indeed involve kde stuff, like kdelibs (not sure if it does, yet) and kpilot (or kdepim, can't remember correctly). I'll get back to my previous point: I guess we're lacking cooperation. Debian has turned into a giant with lots of maintainers working alone, behaving like the package was 'theirs', and that has been leading to the territorialism problem we are currently facing in lots of places. I invite everyone to start thinking about this. What can we do to have a more comunity-led[0] development? We seem to be making progresses on packages like glibc, for example, which is now maintained by a team. A much better approach. Stuff like 'why shouldn't I have uploaded packagex because of those gnome fools' and 'you know that release schedule is foolish, I'm working with real goals' do not help Debian at all. kov, which also feels guilty of such stuff [0]: could not find a better definition... I guess you can understand what I mean... it's not simply about doing everything the whole comunity (e.g. our users) wants, but trying to make good for Debian as a whole all the times. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Gustavo Noronha <http://people.debian.org/~kov> Debian: <http://www.debian.org> * <http://www.debian-br.org> D�vidas sobre o Debian?
