external dependencies review



Grr, hadn't meant to send that yet...

Hey,

while bumping the dbus version, I noticed that the telepathy stuff was
missing on the wiki, so I took the freedom to add libtelepathy,
telepathy-glib and telepathy-mission-control. They were already added
to the moduleset a while ago. I also did a little review comparing the
versions listed on the wiki page to the versions we ship in rawhide (
== latest upstream release). Here is the list of modules where the
recommended version on the wiki is not the same as the latest
upstream:

cairomm              1.2.2   same    1.5.0
dbus-python          0.80.2  same    0.83.0
desktop-file-utils   0.10    same    0.15
enchant              1.2.5   same    1.4.2
expat                1.95.8  same    2.0.1
gamin                0.1.8   same    0.1.9
gnutls               1.4.0   same    2.4.1
gpgme                1.0.0   same    1.1.6
hal                  0.5.10  same    0.5.11
icon-naming-utils    0.8.1   same    0.8.7
iso-codes            0.53    same    3.1
libgpg-error         1.4     same    1.6
libgsf               1.14.5  same    1.14.8
libmusicbrainz       2.1.3   2.1.4   2.1.5
libtasn1             0.3.4   same    1.4
libxslt              1.1.22  same    1.1.24
ndesk-dbus           0.6.0   same    0.6.1a
opencdk              0.5.8   same    0.6.6
pkg-config           0.21    same    0.23
poppler              0.8.0   same    0.8.5
pycairo              1.2.2   same    1.4.12
Python               2.4.3   same    2.5.1
rarian               0.7.0   same    0.8.0
shared-mime-info     0.22    0.50    0.51
firefox              2.0     same    3.0.1

The first second and third column are the min./recommended version
that we currently list on the wiki, the last column is the version
that we currently ship in rawhide. Do we want to generally bump the
recommended version to the latest ?

There are also some deps that may deserve a closer look:
gamin - does anything require gamin directly ?
libcolorblind - is at version 0.0.1, which is afaik the only version
there ever was. Is this dead ? Should we rely on it ?
