We are not planning to continue providing the gnome1 widget and application libraries after 10.5. Specifically, we expect to keep glib and gtk+ but not gnome-libs. It's been over 6 years since gnome2 came out and gnome3 is on the horizon and many other distros are also dropping the long-obsoleted -unsupported -un-etc'ed suite. If there has been no action on them in six years, seems likely there could be a new version available or a new fork or alternative/functional replacement. Alternately, sometimes it's not so hard to convert a program that uses gnome-libs into one that uses libgnome2 instead. I have added Distribution tags to gnome-libs and propagated up the dep tree from there as far as I can see easily. Other than the core gnome libraries themselves, there were only 15 end-user packages that were affected:
