Both the 'oregano' and 'libgpewidget' source packages (build-) depend on libcairo and are in testing, and a whole bunch of gpe-related packages in turn depend on libgpewidget. I don't think removal is an option, as the cluster of packages indrectly depending on libcairo is really big. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl
