Exactly. I'm using libgime2.1 for a non-packaged project as well. > However, I'm fairly certain that the first one of them (gmime) would be > unused, so at least that one can probably safely be removed.

I see no reason to remove it from unstable nor testing. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
