Bug#485682: Anyone working on this?

[Ivan Vucica]

Hi,
I'll try your suggestions and I'm sorry about inflating bug report.
However I think that a theme is a dependency like any other, and that
perhaps the proper solution until Nokia moves to CC3.0 is putting
hildon-desktop in contrib and the theme in nonfree. Ignoring a
dependency is worse than putting a package in contrib. When theme is
put dfsg free it's easy to move the package.

To be honest, I don't think the package is lenny-ready atm...
