I stand corrected. Julien convinced my on irc that a transition plan is needed. Fortunately it turned out to be pretty easy: libxine1-plugins will depend on libxine1-x and libxine1-console until lenny. after lenny is released, these two dependencies will be dropped. For that reason my initial announcement mail still stands unchanged. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
