Yeah, exactly. I was too late to have things sorted out with people |
11 |
maintaining (or the lack of it) to have this stabilized together with |
12 |
GNOME-2.16, as the biggest desktop environments need to be |
13 |
revdep-rebuilt to a large extent if not using --as-needed. |

I hope you guys are going to do it together with a large KDE |
16 |
stabilization spree then or something. I can time GNOME-2.16.3 |
17 |
stabilization to the same time as well, to minimize otherwise useless |
18 |
revdep-rebuilding and include this with version updates. |
19 |
Some pointer to use -X (--package-names) flag for revdep-rebuild |
20 |
somewhere might be a good idea. |
