 Hu? both should coexist just fine, no?

Sorry--caffeine in bloodstream failing.  I meant gtkhtml can't be
removed in favor of gtkhtml1.1
No worries :-)

one of the problems is/was (didn't check if it is still the case) that gnome-core-shlibs depends on gtkhtml, which clearly is not necessary. We have to go over all packages and check this, I guess when gtkhtml was splitoffized the dependencies where just automatically updated and not reviewed later on. Masanori told me he can't cope with all the work, as many of his (gnome) packages are affected, so maybe some of us can help him there (Masanori, correct me if I misunderstood you there!).

Compiling a list of packages that depend on gtkhthml, sorted by maintainer, would be a good first step.


Cheers,

Max
