Hi folks,
There are only 5 packages left that have reverse depends on gnome-libs
packages. They are as follows:
digitaldj: Removal request was filed but maintainer claims someone has
done a Gtk2 port and saved it for now.
gbib: Removal was proposed. I mailed upstream and the response was
"gbib is no longer maintained or developed". I'm trying to build it now
with Gtk2 but not having much luck so far.
gsnes9x: Removal requested. It's been listed as dead on SourceForge
since 2004. snes9express possibly a Gtk2 replacement?
powershell: Removal was requested but maintainer saved it. This one
could be a bit of a pain to port.
soundtracker: Dead upstream since 2001 but one of the devs started on a
Gtk2 port. Currently it fails to build and has bugs according to the
website. I've e-mailed but not received a response.
Given this and the fact that gnome-libs removal was suggested (and bugs
filed) over a year ago, does it make sense to remove gnome-libs before
Lenny releases?
For more details, I have been trying to keep the wiki page up to date:

Thanks,
Barry deFreese
