I agree with Josselin here. There is no point in forking gconf and other libraries. Even worse, this will increase the incompatibility between different desktops. For example, an app making use of "gconftool-2" will not work when there's "mateconftool-2" in the system instead.
If you want to fix a bug in GNOME libraries, you should propose a patch to their bugzilla, they will be happy to accept it. Also, we try to remove existing packages that use deprecated libraries (like libgnome* and libbonobo*), and I think it's not good at all to add new packages relying on those libraries. -- Dmitry Shachnev (Debian Maintainer) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
