Control: block 933548 by 941467

Another status update regarding gnome 3.34 transitions.

Issues:
- DONE: glib2.0 failed on i386 and s390x, but give-backs was used to work
  around it. Needs to be investigated in detail later. Not a blocker for
  now.
- how to handle folks is being discussed. Suggestion is to update
  zeitgeist (orphaned) and disable zeitgeist integration in  folks
  (temporarily or permanently?) in folks. This will unblock folks and
  gnome-contacts.
- samba FTBFS in unstable is a blocker for gnome-control-center builds.
  (See blocker above for bug report.)

Sourceful uploads:
- gnome-panel and gnome-flashback needs uploads (asked mitya57)

BinNMUs:
I think we should be ready to start a round of binnmus related to
gnome-desktop3 transition, please schedule these:
cheese
eog
gnome-clocks
gnome-font-viewer
gnome-screensaver
gnome-software
nautilus
totem
ukwm

evince

Possibly also: gnome-books and gnome-documents


A short note about the eds transition:
- abiword built here, can it be binNMUed?
- Just sent a mail to libreoffice at p.d.o to make them aware of the
  ongoing transition and ask for their input.
- (again: folks)
- (also: gnome-panel and gnome-contacts)
- These should be possible to handle via temporary removal from testing
  if needed: eweouz, glabels, gnome-phone-manager


Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
