thanks

Here's a snippet from IRC that carrying an explanation from GNOME Team. 
Though still present, the problem is already solved by binNMUs, so lower 
the severity.


manphiz any one had a look at #28? It seems libwnck1 is not in sid 
anymore, so it wouldn't be a problem.

manphiz and the problem is already taken care of by binNMUs
lool manphiz: The actual problem is that you can't install libwnck1 
with libwnck$next if the dependencies on libwnck-commno are too strict 
in both packages
Np237 we could relax those dependencies, after all these are only 
translations
lool manphiz: The dependencies have been relaxed somewhat, but still 
do not permit mixing libwnck from an older GNOME with the new one

lool manphiz: Basically the same thing happened to libvte
manphiz lool, I see. but maybe they are meant not to be installable at 
the same time?
lool manphiz: There were other alternatives which were heavier in 
terms of maintenance, so the conclusion of the discusions I started on 
debian-gtk-gnome@ were to unversion the dependency between libvte$n and 
-common
lool manphiz: the spirit of the Debian Policy is to permit shared libs 
to be parallel installable
lool Even if libwnckn and n+1 have no direct file conflict, they 
conflict de facto
