FWIW a "fixed" gdk-pixbuf will enter lenny soon, and this will likely break libgtk-perl. If noone with the skills to migrate dfontmgr shows up, I'll probably end up NMUing defoma to remove the dfontmgr binary package. I don't think it's a big loss, as I believe the services it provides are now featured by fontconfig that has common GUIs (and is not Debian centric which is I think better anyways). gdk-pixbuf will enter lenny in 5 days, I'll probably ask for libgtk-perl removal at that time. The sole other issue is with libpoe-perl that has a gtk event loop in its available modules, but that's manageable. (ping Steve ?)
