Yes, but that will also mean package using gtk-extra2 will not be able to link to gtk3, which is what Neil was saying IIUC. > Joss, can you tell me > whether you intend for there to be a transition period when both GTK+2 and > GTK+3 are in Debian?

GTK+3 will be released around March 2010 or so. When GTK+2 will be removed we don't really know, but don't wait till the last moment or it may be too late :) Emilio
