Quoting "Thomas Orgis" <thomas-forum AT orgis.org>:

Hello mages.

Once again, the issue of outdated stuff giving us the PITA has been risen in discussion... I'm making this one offical:

I hereby speak out for the removal (deprecation) of all Gnome 1.x specific spells.

I'd like to keep gtk+1 for various unrelated apps, but the base gnome stuff is just old, abandoned, and thus broken.
We don't keep kde2 around... and kde3 will also vanish at some time, I guess.

Opinions? Plans?

Definitely. :) Just be sure to not remove any packages which are dependencies (optional or otherwise) for other packages.
