Hey,
I noticed we missed managed D-Bus[0] in the list of external
dependencies for 2.21. It's used pretty extensively by Tomboy which is
in the core desktop module, as well as a handful of other applications
like F-Spot, last-exit and Banshee.
Module Version# Download
------ -------- --------
ndesk-dbus 0.6.0 http://www.ndesk.org/archive/ndesk-dbus
ndesk-dbus-glib 0.4.1 http://www.ndesk.org/archive/ndesk-dbus
Both libraries have strict ABI stability guarantees, and have not broken
compatibility since the first release.
There are also a bunch of copies of these modules scattered throughout
GNOME SVN, which is no good for security-critical IPC code. Getting them
on the list of blessed external dependencies will encourage developers
to stop bundling.
