Hi,

The summary, for those not willing to read details below, is that we
still have to ship parts of the GNOME 2 stack for some apps that need
it; they're not leftovers.

gnome-audio just never got another release, and I was wondering if we
should drop it.

gnome-desktop2 is just the 2.x branch of gnome-desktop, that is kept
because some packages need the library.

gnome-js-common is fine.
gnome-mag is now removed, but we have nothing that obsoletes it. It's
unclear what should do that. Any proposal?
gnome-main-menu is "fine": that's the right version, but we might drop
it soon if nobody ports it to GNOME 3 technologies.

That's the last release of gnome-media (with gnome-sound-recorder, which
is nice). The dependency in gnome-applets is wrong now, I'll fix it.

They're fine.

Python bindings for some GNOME 2 libraries. Needed for some packages.
You can try to remove it to see if you need it.

gnome-speech: nothing obsoleting it. Same issue as gnome-mag. Maybe
speech-dispatcher should obsolete it.
gnome-vfs2: fine.
gnome-web-photo: fine.
libgail-gnome: fine, but you can remove it.
libgnome-desktop-2-17: see gnome-desktop2 comment above.

libgnome: fine, there's no later release. You might not need it anymore,
though, depending on what package is installed.
libgnome-window-settings1: doesn't exist anymore, and since it's using
slpp, we don't do Obsoletes for that.

libgnomeprintui: fine, but you can likely remove it.
libgnomesu: fine, but we want to replace it.
libgnomeui: fine, see libgnome above.
libproxy0-gnome: probably not obsoleted because of slpp rule?
libxine1-gnome-vfs: no idea
mozilla-xulrunner20-gnome: fine, I think.
python-*: same as python-gnome-desktop above.

Cheers,

Vincent
