Yes, I agree that FAM should be dropped. Markus, I do not understand
why you were asked to revert the change from gamin back to FAM.
Right. Nor has this request been backed up by evidence of a release
team decision. To move things forward, I just uploaded a 1.0.16-2 for
courier that builds against libgamin-dev, again.
Was #983478 filed before it was clear that remaining packages could
convert to use gamin?
No, just immediately after the conversion in 1.0.15-1.
==> Markus, I ask that we give Adrian a chance to respond, but I see
no good reason to keep courier depending on FAM. On the contrary,
using FAM is MORE LIKELY to lead to conflicts with other packages
that are using gamin (instead of FAM)
I agree.
If you see anything wrong with 1.0.16-2, could you please file a new bug
report (and avoid cross posting). These two are closed already (and
therefore didn't quite properly track the issue). Thank you.
Best Regards
Markus
