One month on and I've heard nothing from the other maintainers with packages that depend on gtk+extra2 or from anyone else interested in porting gtk+extra2 (or even just GtkSheet) to Gtk3.0. I therefore propose to seek pre-emptive removal of quicklist, libgtkada2, gpsim and gtk+extra2 if I've still not had any cause to reconsider the problems before DebConf9. I'll file RM: RoM bugs against quicklist and gtk+extra2 and RM: RoQA for libgtkada and gpsim - unless anyone comes up with a good reason not to do so - at DebConf9. I don't think I'll bother orphaning quicklist or gtk+extra2 as an interim step, just skip to removal. FTR: gpsim already has an RC bug #520005 (FTBFS) >From only a cursory glance at the libgtkada2 sources, I would have thought that the package could build without gtk+extra2 (with some patches to the upstream) but whether it can be ported to Gtk3.0 is another matter. I may start with an ordinary bug against libgtkada2 and see if there is interest in rebuilding it without gtk+extra2 and with Gtk3.0. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
