I'll make that change. Can I ask if you are going to upload this soon? To get cairo removed I need a new libgpewidget upload and need you to request debian-release to add the new version into sarge. There's only a few days left. Cheers Dave -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#309933: libgpewidget1: request to remove dependency on cairo
Package: libgpewidget1 Version: 0.88-1 Severity: normal I am the maintainer of the cairo libraries in debian and I have recently made the request that they be removed from sarge as the API is about to make a big change and it is probably a bad idea to ship the old api version in a release: http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/05/msg01167.html Although this request is still under consideration, libgpewidget is one of the few (2) apps using cairo going into sarge. I checked the libgpewidget1 source and it seems there is alternate code if cairo is not available, which was easy for me to enable with $(make) CAIRO=no in the build rule. Can I request libgpewidget is rebuilt without cairo, removing the build dependency also.
