Hi there,

Your package uses the function 'gtk_combo_box_new_text' but declares -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
This leads to the problem that some function prototypes aren't included and
(which is bad) some integers are converted to pointers without a cast. See 
on http://wiki.debian.org/ImplicitPointerConversions why this is a problem.

Here is an excerpt from the buildlog at https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=kanatest&arch=ia64&ver=0.4.8-2&stamp=1301316430:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..  -Wall -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/share/locale\"  -DGDK_PIXBUF_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -pthread -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/gio-unix-2.0/ -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/libdrm   -I/usr/include/libxml2  -g -O2 -MT gui.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/gui.Tpo -c -o gui.o gui.c

gui.c:637: warning: implicit declaration of function 'gtk_combo_box_append_text'
gui.c:656: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

According to the above mentioned wiki page, this should have caused the build
to fail, but the script doesn't seem active at the moment.
