Hi Daniel; I'm not necessarily opposed to migrating to the Debian packages to gmime 2.6, but I'd like to point out that your patch is might be more decisive than intended, since the build daemons strip all but the first dependency. This will cause the build do fail if 2.6 is not available. For more discussion of this, see id:"20110920181701.GQ3245@codelibre.net" (debian-devel, Sept. 2011). David
