Bug#749253: hotot-gtk: depends on python-webkit which is deprecated
Package: hotot-gtk Version: 1:0.9.8.14-3 Severity: important User: pkg-webkit-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: oldlibs python-webkit webkit1 Hi, hotot-gtk depends on python-webkit, which is deprecated and going to be removed from the archive. hotot-gtk should switch to using the GObject Introspection bindings for webkit, ideally gir1.2-webkit2-3.0 for Webkit2 and gtk+3 as upstream has already dropped WebKit1 (so gir1.2-webkit-1.0 and gir1.2-webkit-3.0 are likely to be dropped from Debian in the near future). This would mean switching to GObject Introspection for other bindings as well, e.g. GLib and GTK+, so making the switch to GTK+ 3 at the same time would make a lot of sense. For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2]. If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Bug#755204: simple-scan: Upcoming vala-0.16 removal
Source: simple-scan Severity: important User: pkg-vala-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: oldlibs vala-0.16-removal Hi, simple-scan build-depends on vala-0.16, which is pretty old and we would like to remove. You should instead use the much newer valac-0.24, or preferably the unversioned 'valac' package.

Bug#892391: blackbox: build-depends on GCC 6
Source: blackbox Severity: serious Tags: sid buster User: debian-...@lists.debian.org Usertags: gcc-6-rm Hi, blackbox build-depends on GCC 6. We now have GCC 7 (default) and GCC 8 in the archive, so please make your package build with a newer compiler (preferably the default one) again, since we'd like to remove GCC 6 from testing before the buster release. Cheers, Emilio
Bug#790207: luakit: depends on libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 which is deprecated
Source: luakit Severity: important Tags: sid stretch User: pkg-webkit-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: oldlibs libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 webkit1 Hi, luakit depends on libwebkitgtk-1.0-0, which is deprecated in favor of libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37. luakit should be ported to the new webkitgtk version so we can remove the old, unmaintained one. As an intermediate step you can port luakit to libwebkitgtk-3.0-0, which has a similar API to libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 but is based on GTK+ 3.0. Thus you'd be porting luakit to GTK+ 3.0 first, using libwebkitgtk-3.0-0, and you could then port to libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 later. But note that libwebkitgtk-3.0-0 is also deprecated. Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to try to remove libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 this cycle. We'll bump this to serious when the list of rdeps is small and we're getting ready to removing libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 completely. If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.
