Gmime for Indiana [LSARC/2008/067 FastTrack timeout 02/13/2008]

[Irene Huang]

Hi, LSARC 

here's the issue list raised in this thread (with answer). 

Why is Gmime set to be "Volatile" 
Jerry: Currently in the community, incompatible changes are introduced
sometimes. It cannot be marked as "Uncommitted" or "higher"

.pc files should be "Uncommitted"
Jerry: Yes, spec updated

Brian Cameron-01: What's the relationship between GMime and the
freedesktop MIME specification. 
Jerry: no relationship.

Brian cameron-02: Which part of SUNWgnome-base-libs does gmime depend
on? 
Jerry: GLib only, "Committed" 

Since there're answers to all the issues, if no further issues, I'll
close the case as approved. 

Thanks
