I probably should've cc'ed -gtk-gnome. The theory is that a working control-center in testing and no gnome-pilot for now is better than a broken control-center and a probably-working gnome-pilot. I don't know yet if AJ will agree.
It would be a good idea to freeze control-center and its dependencies for a few days in unstable so that all this can work. (Note: this does *not* mean removing gnome-pilot from unstable, nor that it has no chance of getting into sarge. Don't panic.) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Forwarded message from Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2003 02:45:06 +0100 From: Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Subject: Suggesting removal of gnome-pilot and friends Mail-Followup-To: [email protected] User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-2.5 required=4.0 tests=USER_AGENT_MUTT version=2.55-lists.debian.org_2003_9_5 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55-lists.debian.org_2003_9_5 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp) Package: gnome-pilot Testing: 0.1.64-1 Unstable: 2.0.10-2 Bugs: not-filed Suggestion: remove-from-testing Analysis: gnome-pilot depends on libpisock8 from the current pilot-link. kpilot, from kdepim, also depends on libpisock8. However, the pilot-link in testing only has libpisock4. This leads to the very bad situation that both a big pile of GNOME packages and a big pile of KDE packages have to be simultaneously ready for testing along with pilot-link in order for any of them to shift. In particular, the current control-center could now move into testing were it not that it breaks the testing (but not unstable) version of gnome-pilot. . I suggest temporarily removing gnome-pilot and its few reverse dependencies from testing in order to break this deadlock. Package: gnome-pilot-conduits Testing: 0.8-2.1 Unstable: 2.0.10-2 Bugs: not-filed Suggestion: remove-from-testing Analysis: See above. gnome-pilot-conduits depends on gnome-pilot and libpisock8. Package: gnome-pim Testing: 1.4.6-1woody1 Unstable: 1.4.9-2 Bugs: not-filed Suggestion: remove-from-testing Analysis: See above. gnome-pim-conduits depends on gnome-pilot and libpisock8.
