That looks about right (plus some -dbg packages). Nothing depends on libgnustep-base1.16-libffi, or on gnustep-back0.14-* (except for gnustep-back0.14 itself). > This transition is tied to the ffmpeg-debian transition via > lynkeos.app. I think it's a pity you can't start working on an > otherwise very isolated transition because of that, but at the same > time I don't want to make ffmpeg wait on GNUstep.

I have uploaded gnustep-make to unstable because it doesn't introduce/remove any packages. -- Hubert Chathi <[email protected]> -- Jabber: [email protected] PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA http://www.uhoreg.ca/ Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
