would it be possible to move drakxtools slowly away from perl gtk?
Or at least make perl gtk better (and provide a perlQt implementation?)
Because as far as I'm concerned, if any of these GUIs freeze up, it's
automatically sucky.
Which most of them will do (ex rpmdrake)
(Even though most aren't, but this affects usability very much)
