Package: timer-applet
Version: 2.1.2-4
Severity: important
User: pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: applets-transition
Hi,
this package currently depends on python-gnomeapplet - most likely
because it provides an applet for the GNOME panel.
The introduction of gnome-panel 3.0 to unstable is imminent. In this
version, the panel-applet library has undergone large changes, and
timer-applet requires changes to support this version:
* updating to the D-Bus activation mechanism
* porting to GTK+ 3
* porting from PyGTK to the GObject Introspection mechanism
You might want to check if upstream developers provide a new version,
compatible with gnome-panel 3.x. Otherwise, porting is a feasible task
if you have a few hours to spare. If you feel like it, the following
guides should help you:
* http://live.gnome.org/PyGObject/IntrospectionPorting
* http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk-migrating-2-to-3.html
* http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/AppletsDbusMigration
For packages that provide other functionality than the GNOME applet,
you can simply disable it in the build and remove the dependency if
it hasnât been ported.
For pure applets packages, you should ask for removal from the
archive if you do not intend to port it to the new interface. Such
packages that have not been ported when gnome-panel is ready to
migrate will be kicked out of testing.
Cheers,
