I, as current glade maintainer have no plans nor interest going in that direction. I am not against anyone maintaining glade2 as a separate package, though, but I would recommend against having it released with Lenny. I suggest that you make this bug report a RFP, thus. > Reasons: - glade3 still has some quite rough edges whereas glade2 > is really usable. unstable is a development branch, this is the time to sharpen those edges > - Some people like and use the code generation feature of > glade2 which has been dropped in glade3.

I think it is pretty usable in a 1024x768 display, but I agree this is very subjective. I believe you should open a bug report about this problem alone, and perhaps suggest some way that would make it more usable for you, so that we can work with the upstream maintainers on having this be better. > Today it is no problem to install glade_2.12.1-7 on sid but if I look > at the dependencies I am afraid the day will come when this no longer > works. We better have glade-3 in shape soon then =). Glade2 is not really being supported upstream since some time now, I've seen many "I'm not going to fix this because glade3 is on its way" since before glade3 went to unstable. So, perhaps you want to turn this into a RFP or split it in some bug reports about the regressions you perceived? See you, -- Gustavo Noronha Silva <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://people.debian.org/~kov/
