Hi! I've been talking to people on the #gnome-debian channel about some of this issues, and also had read or started some threads about the topics. There are 4 main things I see we should work on while we're working on this transition:
1. Oskuro already pointed out that we should be using libgnutls10 where possible for gnome2.6 debs 2. We have some package naming inconsistencies on libraries like libgnome which we should be fixing following the libpkg-guide procedure, as suggested by Junichi. 3. We should start thinking about using the gnome2.6 transition to move the schema files to where they belong: /usr/share. 4. debifying gnome - we need to work on making gnome look more like a 'debian desktop' - this includes a default splash, a default background and, maybe, a default theme. It also includes fixing nautilus to actually add the Debian-related .desktop files which are included in nautilus: [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ dpkg -L nautilus-data | grep -i debian /usr/share/doc/nautilus-data/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/share/nautilus/initial-desktop/debian-homepage.desktop /usr/share/nautilus/initial-desktop/debian-reference.desktop /usr/share/nautilus/initial-desktop/debian-security.desktop Now, this fourth item is something I'd like to have fixed for gnome2.4, even. I would like to put the default stuff directly into gnome-session, where it belongs (in splash's case) and have desktop-base only provide alternatives. What do people, especially the new gnome-session's maintainer think?
