Hi,

I have reviewed some of the failures of the Contrib repo on 11.3 and there are 
a few packages which might be fixed by upgrades to a newer version, some have 
coding failures which are not tolerated by the newer GCC and some because of 
missing dependencies.

I have fixed a couple of build failures where the fix was simple and obvious. 
But in other cases, I hope maintainers can provide build fixes which are not 
too invasive.

Some are definite candidates for a drop:


xlogmaster - missing gtk-devel dropped

workrave - needs kde3sdk - move to KDE3 ?

tangerine - needs beagle-devel

antiword - needs glib-devel, but in this case antiword is still useful for 
other packages

In addition, these packages fail:

https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?arch_i586=1&defaults=0&failed=1&project=openSUSE%3AFactory%3AContrib&repo_openSUSE_11_3=1

The objective of this exercise was to try an avoid bit rot of packages in 
Contrib which may have been submitted for earlier versions, but now fail on 
with the latest versions of openSUSE.

Thanks,
Peter
