Right now, bonobo and gnome-vfs effectively have a circular dependency
because gnome-vfs uses libefs and bonobo uses gnome-vfs. Yes, I know
that technically libefs is a separate module. But when you make binary
packages built in the normal way, bonobo will have to depend on the
gnome-vfs package and vice versa.
There are several possible solutions:
1) Make bonobo stop importing libefs through cvs magic; instead, make
it use and depend on the libefs module, which would be built and
installed separately.
2) Move the efs gnome-vfs module into bonobo; gnome-vfs modules do not
need to be distributed with gnome-vfs to work, examples include the
search: module in medusa, and the help: module in nautilus.
3) Remove the efs gnome-vfs module entirely.
#1 seems most reasonable to me, but I would be happy to implement any
of the 3 options.
