Package: xteddy
Version: 2.0.2-2.1
Severity: wishlist

I just noticed that xteddy is still using imlib11.  Please
switch to libimlib2-dev if at all possible; imlib11 is in
oldlibs and will probably go away before etch+1.

imlib1 will be removed for Squeeze, so this is now release-critical.

Just to keep you informed about the status about this problem:

  1. xteddy is dead upstream and I do not see any chance that
     somebody will fix the bug.
  2. there is a program called cteddy
      http://cteddy.mangobrain.co.uk/
     (_C_omposition teddy) which works with Gtk+ >= 2.1 and
     might replace xteddy.  I actually have some packaging stuff on
     my local hard disk.  Unfortunately there are some problems
     with window managers which do not use composition.  I try
     to sort out this with the author

In short xteddy can go away at any team release team feels a need
for removal.  There is some hope for a replacement of cteddy
(and I actually setted Provides/Conflicts/Replaces: xteddy for
my local cteddy package.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
