The shlibs bump was added to automatically increase the requirement for these 3 packages on libgnome-menus2. Before the change, they needed to ask for gnome-applications.menu instead of applications.menu. Now, the renaming is automatically done within gnome-menus, but if you install e.g. the new gnome-panel with a pre-2.16.1-1 libgnome-menu2, you'll end up with an empty menu. > I don't understand why only these few packages need to be fixed - what's > up with other packages (such as alacarte, for example)? Alacarte does indeed need to be fixed, as it uses gnome-applications-merged instead of applications-merged. However, fixing alacarte would require API additions to python-xdg, which doesn't look reasonable for etch. -- Josselin Mouette /\./\ "Do you have any more insane proposals for me?"
