Hi Emilio.

Excerpts from Emilio Pozuelo Monfort's message of Dom Mai 30 17:10:19 -0300 2010:

The fact that there's no package in the archive that uses it doesn't mean it
doesn't have any users.  Assuming there are users of this package, I think it
should stay until it doesn't work anymore.

I'll add a note in it's description telling the users that it's deprecated and
shouldn't be used in new packages, and that they should use GIO.  Is it good
enough for you?

Greetings.
