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. |
