<PRE>In just released libgsf (1.14.23), Python is not built by default.

Quoting <A HREF="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672663:">https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672663:</A>
|<i> The python bindings  depends in pygtk-codegen-2.0 which is now a wrapper
</I>|<i> for pygobject-codegen-2.0 which itself was removed from pygobject.
</I>|<i> Instrospection being available they are obsolete either way.
</I>|<i> 
</I>|<i> This patch disable their generation by default.
</I>
What to do with above? By default python support is not built anymore
due to above. I can enable it in configure again, but prefer to just not
build it (despite above, still compiles with --with-python). If
something needs libgsf, they should use gobject introspection (which you
can use from Python as well as js, etc).

Nothing seems to depend on python-libgsf AFAICS

Should I:
- disable for Mageia 2 (as nothing seems to require python-libgsf)
  should I add a Obsolete and where? task-obsolete or libgsf itself?
- enable static python bindings only for Mageia 2, remove after
  in case something actually requires it
- stay with current libgsf version
  problem sounds generic though, would apply to previous as well

Olav
