Please take it under advisement that I am currently trying to persuade
Thomas that the gdk-imlib11-dev and gdk-imlib11 packages should be abandoned
in favor of reintroduction of gdk-imlib1 and gdk-imlib1-dev as
libpng12-based packages. I know a couple of you have already uploaded your
packages to fix these bugs, which if all goes according to plan means you
will have to *re*upload shortly to revert this change, sorry. For the rest
of you, I would suggest that you hold off on implementing this change until
Thomas and I come to some sort of agreement.

One way or another, I do intend to reintroduce gdk-imlib1 and gdk-imlib1-dev
to etch based on libpng12-0, so unless your package depends on libpng10-0
directly, you shouldn't need to reupload your package for the png
transition.

Thanks,
