Bug#549053: balsa: Still uses gmime2.2

Package: balsa
Version: 2.3.28-1
Severity: normal
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs gmime2.2

balsa currently still uses GMime version 2.2 (libgmime-2.0-2a).

However, there is a newer GMime version in the archive (gmime2.4),
with an incompatible (although very close) API. GMime 2.2 will be
eventually phased out in favor of this version.

Please port balsa to gmime2.4 as soon as possible. It is very likely
that a new upstream version will include that change for most
packages; if there is none available yet, you should forward this
request upstream.

Thanks,
