I'd like to do the libgweather transition together with evolution
3.8/evolution-data-server 3.8/gtkhtml4.0 4.6

I'll work on that asap as possible. As you can see in the titanpad [1],
there are still a FTBFS, so this transition is not quite ready yet.
Once we're ready with that lot, I'll poke you again.

Fwiw, I've decided to just go ahead and upload gjs and gdl, since those
transitions are so tiny. For gjs I've already uploaded gnome-sushi, for
gdl, I've updated anjuta and gtranslator. Could you please schedule the
following three binNMUs

nmu gnome-shell_3.4.2-11 . ALL . -m "Rebuild against libgjs0c"
nmu cinnamon_1.7.4-2 . ALL . -m "Rebuild against libgjs0c"
nmu gtkpod_2.1.3-4 . ALL . -m "Rebuild against libgdl-3-5"

We should probably let those ongoing transitions finish, as gnome-shell
will also be involved in cogl/clutter.

In the meantime, gtksourceview is almost ready. We just need to fix
giggle and gobby-0.5. Will keep you informed, once that is ready.

In summary: Please schedule the above 3 binNMUs.
We should then let gdl and gjs (and rdeps) migrate to testing.
After that, we can start clutter/cogl and gtksourceview, both should be
pretty much ready.

evo/eds/gtkhtml/libgweather I would start whenever we got the list of
FTBFS down a bit, atm we are not quite there yet. Since gnome-shell will
be involved in both clutter/cogl and
evo/eds/gtkhtml/libgweather we probably shouldn't tie those two
together. So I'd start evo/eds/gtkhtml/libgweather as soon as
clutter/cogl is finished.

Michael




Cheers,
