Hi, this mail just came in. I assume you are not planing to start developing gnometab again? Do you know of any active users that would be interested in getting the package back in shape? If not, I will have to remove it from Debian soon...
Greetings, Joachim -------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Von: j...@debian.org Reply-to: j...@debian.org, 542557-mainto...@bugs.debian.org An: mainto...@bugs.debian.org Betreff: Bug#542557: gnometab: uses libgnomeprint which is scheduled for removal Datum: Thu, 20 Aug 2009 10:54:56 +0200 Package: gnometab Version: 0.7.4-9 Severity: important User: pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: oldlibs libgnomeprint Hi, gnometab currently still uses libgnomeprint. However, libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui are going to be soon deprecated upstream. The GtkPrint replacement (built in GTK+ itself) has been available for 3 years. I’d like to remove libgnomeprint packages before the squeeze release. This can only be done by getting rid of as much as possible of the reverse dependencies. Note that some of these packages already include GtkPrint support, but you have to select it at compile time. Otherwise, please consider porting to the much more modern Cairo/GtkPrint API. As for bindings, they don’t have any reverse dependencies except for the Python ones, so they should simply be removed ASAP.
