2.4.1 was hanging on some updated tarballs (which haven't all been released,
but we're going live anyway - the ftp site was updated last night, though I
have to update a few of the versions there).

2.5 is totally halted on the deprecated errors. We're going to do a huge
call for tarballs with fixed build foo, either 2.4.x series (if you have no
reason to do a 2.5 release) or 2.5 (if you aren't concerned with your 2.4.x
series packages not building on GTK+ 2.5/2.6). That call is going out
tonight, so we ought to be able to do an initial 2.5 release next week.

Apologies for the lack of status,

- Jeff
