We have even removed it from Debian. There are many options for GNOME Jabber clients currently (eg. gajim, gossip and pidgin) so, unless someone really wants to have gabber2 back into Debian (and to assume its upstream maintainership), that's the way to go. Sources for the last uploaded packages of jabberoo and gabber2 are available at http://people.debian.org/~goedson/gabber/ if someone wants to bring it to life again.

Hi, Is gabber2 stable enough yet? I don't know that there's a choice with the pending removal of gnome1 libs? Thanks, Barry deFreese -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Gabber 2 is not stable enough for a release and still lack many features from Gabber 1. I'm currently working o stabilizing the current code base in order to start adding the missing features. Until we finish this task, we'll have to continue having two versions of gabber in the archive. -- .''`.

Package: gabber Severity: wishlist OK, so after filing the last bug (about the C++ transition) I realized that gabber 2 has already been uploaded and is in pretty good shape. :-) Gabber 1 isn't. Rather than messing around with making it undergo the g++-4.0 transition, dealing with all its bugs, etc., I suggest removing it from Debian, replacing it with a dummy package depending on gabber2 (or vice versa, but either way leaving only one gabber package). Is gabber2 stable enough to do this yet? Is there some reason not to? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
