Is it because the code has been dropped? 15:40:25 gtk2 support has been dropped 15:40:32 ok 15:40:38 they said they would get ride of all their ton of ifdefs and legacy code after the LTS 15:40:48 so definitely needs to be a separate source package, which someone who needs it can resurrect from the archive without too much difficulty 15:40:58 right 15:41:14 just take the precise version, drop the gtk3 binary and put it under a different source name 15:41:19 in the meantime all affected flavours have dropped it from their seeds 15:41:22 the protocol didn't change 15:41:54 .. 15:41:54 Laney: they've preferred this over picking up the old code branch? 15:41:59 knome, astraljava, scott-work, gilir ^ who is taking point on getting this done. wasn't clear from status emails. 15:42:06 indicator-applications is the easiest one, as it's not using any gtk3 specific code 15:42:12 slangasek: no, it's just an interim solution 15:42:15 ok 15:42:22 someone (sorry, I forgot who) told me they were working on bringing it back 15:42:50 skaet_, xubuntu dev is working on indicator-application re-upload 15:43:14 do we need FFe for this ? 15:43:30 just to know what paperwork we need to bring this back 15:43:32 I wouldn't think so 15:43:34 .. 15:43:44 gilir, having a bug for tracking this though, would be good. 15:44:01 (not a FFe, but rather making sure we all know who's working on it, etc.) 15:44:09 .. 15:44:49 * skaet_ looks around to see if other questions? 15:45:02 none from me 15:47:07 can we go home? 15:47:12 yup. :) 15:47:19 #endmeeting 15:47:22 \o/ 15:47:23 thanks 15:47:28 thanks all. 15:47:32 lol 15:47:33 THE BOT DISAGREES 15:47:36 Thanks popey, brendan, scott-work, smartboyhw, seb128, gilir, arosales, slangasek, gilir, Laney, xnox, jibel, gema, ScottK. 15:47:41 bye 15:47:44 thanks all 15:47:51 #endmeeting
