Since thera are some binary incompatibilities in base and gui, it make s=
ense to rebuild packages using NSUnarchiver, GSIMapTable, NSView and sub=
classes.
But that could be a huge work to determine wich apps are using this clas=
ses, so maybe it's more fast and simple to rebuild all packages ( but on=
ly when gnustep-gui will be available bor all debian architectures).

>=20
> What should we call the packages now?

It seems .app and .framework are the most popular.
But we need now to post something in debian-devel.
(I think .app will be accepted but I'm not sure that .framework will be =
too)

>=20
> I will remove all binary wrappers from my packages.
Why ?
If this is because of the namespace pollution, you can use .app or the r=
eal apps name with uppercase (ie. textedit.app or TextEdit) or both.

> Eric, if you want I can do Preferences too.
Okay, just do it.
Please use latest CVS version with the Nicolas'color module.
Thanks.
