Hi, i'm going to try and package up pavuk. Pavuk is a url grabber that supports Gopher, HTTP, and FTP. It's main UI is based off the console however it does support a rather nice (if a bit buggy) X mode. The X mode uses gtk or Xlib, i've worked with the gtk version and will recompile for xlib after I write this. My question for you is how should I go about packaging it? the console version works well (from what i've done with it) and the gtk version dumps a few messages when you start a job but other than that works pretty good. My first inclination was to build one that works only on the console and make a seperate packages that provide the gtk and xlib versions. But the Debian Policy says to simply build the packages binary to support X and the console and require xlib6g. No problem with xlib but I think requiring gtk as well is a problem. personaly i'm kinda upset when a package that i'm only going to use on the console requires xlibs. Suggestions?
