Not sure who you were saying that to, but I did raise that we should avoid the transition; perhaps I should have used stronger words On Fri, Apr 17, 2009, Adeodato Simó wrote: > The thing is that it’s infinitely better to rebuild pango1.0 and make it > depend on libdatrie1, and then rebuild it again once libthai was fixed > in order to make the dependency go away completely, than to wait and > rebuild it only once when a fixed libthai is available.

I think you're mixing libdatrie and libthai above, not sure; I was proposing to: - change libthai/unstable to not cause linkage on libdatrie - rebuild pango against that to drop the datrie dep - upload new datrie - rebuild libthai against it > Of course, you weren’t supposed to be aware of this, since it’s rather > specific knowledge, so no blame is involved. :-) Theppitak is upstream for datrie and libthai as well -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
