Dear Jeremy, I'm an upstream of some of the software that depends on
lablgtk2. Porting to GTK+3 is not an easy option, since lablgtk3 does
not exist (and will not exist as far as I know).
As far as I understand, the main offender here is libgnomecanvas2-0.
I was wandering if we could rebuild lablgtk2 switching off support for
some gnome technology: that is get rid of the binary package
liblablgtk2-gnome-ocaml but keep the others)
Lablgtk2 is made of optional components that can be switched off at
configure time. Eg on my system I currently get:
LablGTK configuration:
GtkGLArea yes
libglade yes
librsvg yes
libgnomecanvas yes
libgnomeui yes
libpanelapplet not found
gtkspell yes
gtksourceview 1 not found
gtksourceview 2 yes
quartz not found
If it is a viable option for you, can you tell me which of the above
are going to be a problem for Buster (in addition to libgnomecanvas)?
Best
