I clearly lack the knowledge to port goobox to gstreamer 0.10. Upstream has stated, that he has now time for the switch ATM, but will try it later this year, clearly post Etch. I will stick to the timeline presented on debian-devel: I will see if upstream updates goobox later this year, if not, goobox should be completely removed. > This is the request of the security team: > > On Sat, Feb 10, 2007, Moritz Muehlenhoff wrote: > > already easily been fixed in sid/experimental. goobox appears dead > > upstream (According to http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=531 > > the last release is from Nov 2005), has hardly any users in popcon > > and we have plenty of media players in Debian.
