[Treeve Jelbert <treeve AT scarlet.be>]

there are multiple development branches, some of which have not been changed 
for ages, others of which are updated more or less frequently.


I am now seeing error reports or compile logs about programs in the master 
branch which need newer versions of something which already exists in a 
development  branch.

New versions of qt or kde now need libxkbcommon, which is only in devel-xorg-
modular.

$ gaze version libxkbcommon gcc icu libpng
Grimoire    Section        Spell         Grimoire Version  Installed Version
--------    -------        -----         ----------------  -----------------
localrepos  misc           libxkbcommon  xkbcommon-0.4.0   xkbcommon-0.4.0
smgl        gnu            gcc           4.6.4             4.8.2
smgl        libs           icu           4.8.1.1           52.1
smgl        graphics-libs  libpng        1.2.51            1.6.10

Note that gcc-4.9 and icu-53 are expected in early April.



I would like to propose that devel-gcc-4.8, devel-icu and devel-libpng-1.6 be 
merged immediately into devel-xorg-modular, which can stabliise for a short 
period and then merge  devel-xorg-modular to master.


This would have the advantage of reducing the number of rebuilds because of 
some of these  updates.

There may be other development branches which I do not track.

If there are any spells which will only build with an old version of gcc, icu 
or libpng they should explicitly depend on gcc-4.6, icu-4.8 or libpng-1.2 
spells.
