As part of trying to see if we can phase out gnome 1, I have tried
checking to see what spells depend on gnome 1 and see if there is a
gnome2 version or if it is an optional depends. Below are the spells I
found that depend on gnome in some way. Where I could I have suggested
fixes or updates to removed the gnome 1 dependencies. Others I have sent
e-mail to the authors of the ones I could find an e-mail to send it to
to see if there are any plans to port to gnome 2, but havn't received
any responses yet.

Don't know if there is a way to find out if anyone is still using these
gnome 1 spells or not. I know I am using kino and I am trying to nudge
the development team for it to port to gnome2....
