Okay, that would be excellent. =) > I've lowered the severity of the bug because if you rely on pkg-config > to provide the linker flags, you'll end up with binaries linked to > glib, and the only package in Debian build-depending on libmms-dev is > gst-plugins0.8 which uses pkg-config to link against libmms. Well, I guess that's reasonable. Although, part of the reason I have interested in libmms is that I'm both the Debian maintainer and upstream for mimms and I'd *like* to use libmms instead of it's own internal mms code (which comes from the same ancestry). Anyway, I guess I could work around it in the meantime by using pkg-config and depending on glib manually, but I will probably just wait for this to be fixed. =) -- Wesley J.
