To be clear, it was always intended that this transition would allow the corresponding update of gnome-control-center and gnome-settings-daemon to 3.12 so FFe ACK for those (they're ~Ubuntu GNOME only - actually also on Edubuntu but they aren't releasing for Utopic)

The big blocker was the removal of xrandr and idlemonitor code out of gnome- desktop. Robert Ancell has solved that issue see Bug 1372240 There is a SONAME bump, however that only affects g-s-d/g-c-c. Mostly apps are using things like the thumbnailer etc, and these are not affected by api changes, so they just need to be rebuilt. gnome-session could be updated to the latest 3.10 stable release, however this is not strictly required and will require reverting removal of fallback dialogs. A rebuild would be fine for now. Full lost of r-depends: Reverse-Depends =============== * cheese [x] * eog [x] * epiphany-browser [x] * evince (separately uploaded, no need to rebuild) * gnome-clocks [x] * gnome-contacts [x] * gnome-control-center * gnome-documents [x] * gnome-font-viewer [x] * gnome-panel [x] * gnome-photos [x] * gnome-screensaver [x] * gnome-session-bin * gnome-settings-daemon * indicator-keyboard * evolution * mutter [x] * nautilus * unity * unity-control-center * unity-settings-daemon packages marked [x] are uploaded I have debian merges ready to go for gnome-desktop, g-s-d and g-c-c 3.12 (but using 3.10 power plugin/panel to untangle from upower 0.99). gnome-control-center update will also require a UIFe, Ubuntu GNOME slideshow has not yet been updated for utopic, so this shouldnt be a problem from our side. No other flavours use the UI part of gnome- control-center anymore, the shared-data (faces) are unchanged.
