gnome-utils was wrong, kind of. (libgal's soname changes quite frequently, which means that packages depending on it need to keep up.) The version of gnome-utils in unstable no longer depends on libgal. It's stuck waiting for gnome-panel, which is waiting for gnome-session, which is waiting for a current version of glib2.0; I believe that glib2.0 should get into testing in four days, at which point the rest of that stack will pop its way through too. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
