[Debian-olpc-devel] Bug#790606: sugar-0.96: depends on python-gnome2 which is deprecated

[pochu at debian.org]

Severity: important

Hi,

sugar-0.96 depends on python-gnome2, which is long deprecated and
going to be removed from the archive. sugar-0.96 should be ported
away from it.

The way forward is to port your app to use GObject Introspection
bindings.

For more information on GObject Introspection see [1] and [2].

Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove python-gnome2 this cycle.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Emilio
