Purging chroot-autobuild/build/buildd/loqui-0.4.4

[Sebastian Carneiro (scarneiro)]

Part of the problem with this bug has to do with outdated references in libgnet-dev to glib include dirs.

A bug has been filed to solve this issue in gnet: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnet/+bug/814374

Besides that, there are some problems in this package regarding indirect linking issues that I'm looking into.

Thanks,

Sebastian.

... which as you say is an indirect linking problem. I'll sort this out.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package loqui - 0.4.4-1ubuntu1

---------------
loqui (0.4.4-1ubuntu1) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Link against libX11, as src/eggtrayicon.c calls X functions directly
    (LP: #755930).
