Just a quick note. The mozilla spell was updated to 1.4a to perforce and this might break galeon2.

I think that grimoire guru's need to be a bit more careful about
removing spells. For example Xft2, which I know is now provided by
xfree86, left a residue of it's installation. For example, gaze
installed Xft2 returns 2_1, and it has an install log. If the install
ever gets corrupted, sorcery will try to cast Xft2. Also, I have 3
spells that have Xft2 listed as depends, one, Pango, lists it as a
required depends, the other two base ./configure options on if Xft2 is
installed.

[gderber@Source_Mage default]$ gaze depends Xft2
mozilla:Xft2:on:optional:--enable-xft:--disable-xft
pango:Xft2:on:required::
qt-x11:Xft2:on:optional:-xft:-no-xft

Anyways, my point is, just removing the spell from the grimoire when no
longer needed is not what should be done, a more thurough cleanup should
be made.

For example, prior to removing Xft2, the DEPENDS file should be updated
for the other spells, and the configure options possibly moved to
CONFIGURE or hard coded in the BUILD file. And then xfree86 should have
a conflicts Xft2.
