Well, apparently the "Debian QA Group" managed to build it, so perhaps
it's not that bad, and I've kept its gmime 0.6 dependency in the
archive. But anyway, no, I don't really mind, if people think that's the
best thing to do. It's certainly not going to be useful for me if it's
dead upstream.

But if gmail is removed, then there's no reason for that old gmime 0.6
(now in libgmime0 and libgmime0-dev) to stay in the archive, perhaps
that should be removed too then.

I guess not.
