Re: Packages still depending on GTK+ 1.2
Dear Neil & Gunner, Thank you for your long, detailed and convincing postings in this thread. I really appreciate it! The argument that finally made me surrender was that time is perhaps better spent helping upstream authors make the conversion. So I guess we're on the same page now. And I'd be crazy not to listen to a couple of heavy-weight experienced DDs :-) Having said that, understand this: scientists are the most conservative programmers on the planet. As someone interested in bringing as many science programs into the distribution as possible, I think others in the science-teams agree that dealing with upstream can be an uphill battle! Things like copyright is almost never in order, the tarballs contain all kinds of strange files that require repackaging, man pages are almost never there, and the documentation is often scarce (of course there is often an associated article in a scientific journal). Upstream authors are always very positive, but there often a long waiting time for delivery. On top of this, asking a scientist for updating the software for a new version of a toolkit will come as an extra burden. Scientists will see this as endless quest for your own shadow. When they've finally gotten around to updating their software to GTK+ 2 (say), version 3 will have long replaced it. But perhaps that is the harsh reality of life for us in the science teams.

That way no package can be rebuilt or upgraded (it must be ported to the new version of the library) but users can continue to use the binaries until the library is finally removed. This way it would be obvious which packages need to be worked on. I realise that this would break the build-depends, but I suppose it is meant to.

Well perhaps what is needed is a way of marking a package as deprecated, and this was what I was trying (badly) to achieve. Better to be explicit. This would trigger a warning whenever it was built rather than actually stopping it being build. That way package maintainers would gets warning in good time that they need to make the required changes before the package is actually removed.

Maybe "Section: oldlibs" needs to be more forcefully expressed? "Any library in Section: oldlibs will be removed from Debian after the next stable release." That just moves the debate to the decision about when the library should change section. There will always be that point where some want it marked and some do not. There can be no hard-and-fast rule, each case has to be decided on merit which is where the disputes start. > This would trigger a warning whenever it was built rather than > actually stopping it being build.

I doubt that this would make a huge difference - it would have to be more than just a warning. To me, only having gtk1.2 in stable is a sufficient solution for now - i.e. make it impossible for any packages depending on gtk1.2 to be released in Squeeze. Maybe it's too late to remove gtk1.2 from Lenny, sadly. Marking a package as worth removal is a technical step - deciding if a package warrants such a tag cannot be reduced to a set of rules that would apply equally across all such cases, we need discussion and an eventual consensus. gtk1.2 shows that a consensus is unlikely to become unanimous and some people, some packages, will simply have to lose out. We can set guidelines for how to determine that point but I find it hard to see how a uniform set of rules can be devised to meet all such cases. We can try and say that a particular library must only have N number of SONAMEs in Debian at the same time but then we have libdb4.x to sort out first. We could say that a particular library must have no more than N number of reverse dependencies that have not migrated before being marked as warranting removal - in reality that would have to be a percentage but then we would probably have dropped GnuCash a long time before it was finally ported to Gtk+2.0, so the relative importance of the reverse dependencies comes into play. -- Neil Williams = http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/ http://e-mail.is-not-s.ms/ pgpqxV8SqnVaz.pgp Description: PGP signature

If those four "Thou shalt" sentences are the whole license text, I see other issues. There's no clear permission to distribute (DFSG#1): if "dispense" may be assumed to mean "distribute", the fourth sentence sounds like an obligation, rather than like a grant of permission. Am I *compelled* to use and distribute libio-pager-perl?!? There's no clear permission to modify and distribute modified versions (DFSG#3).
