Yup, that's a typo. So changed.

gnome/media/gstreamer:
gstreamer isn't actually a GNOME project, the project changed sometime ago to "gstreamer: open source multimedia framework". In fact, KDE apps can use gstreamer as well. So assuming gstreamer only contains gstreamer, please don't put this under gnome/. media/library/ or audio/library/ or something else would be better. It doesn't require GNOME libraries either afaik (Gtk and Glib no longer count as GNOME libraries either; they're desktop-agnostic and have been for many years).

I've just discussed this with David. We are going to change it to:

    gnome/media/gstreamer ==> library/audio/gstreamer

This has the ripple-on effect of:

audio/gstreamer-plugin/gnonlin ==> library/audio/gstreamer/plugin/gnonlin

desktop/pdf-viewer/evince:
So, going with the above point, evince actually *is* a GNOME project. But I don't know if it actually requires GNOME libraries to run. So maybe a better question about the gnome/ namespace is what is intended to live there? It's sort of confusing that we have the gnome/ namespace and then several packages have gnome in their name that are not in the gnome/ namespace.

Laca put together a list of where all the GNOME/Desktop packages
should go. At that time he had this package under application/pdf-viewer/evince
One of the blanket changes agreed upon by Stephen and David was that there
shouldn't be a top-level "application" in the name-space, and everything under
there went under "desktop/...". This is where we plan to leave it.


Gnu -> GNU (I think) for package summary:
  SNUWgnupg, SUNWpth

If any package summaries are incorrect, could you please file separate bugs.

print/lp/compatibility/sunos4, system/compatibility/sunos4:
   Is it intentional that the the last part of the name isn't unique?

Yes.

Thanks for the feedback.
