Description Vincent Untz 2006-07-30 11:35:19 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #349256 +++

Please help kill libegg. Your module contains some egg code that is now deprecated thanks to new features, most probably the new GTK+ 2.10 features like:

 + GtkRecent* (deprecating EggRecent)
 + GtkStatusIcon (deprecating EggTrayIcon and EggStatusIcon)
 + GtkCellRendererAccel (deprecating EggCellRendererKeys)
 + GtkAccelGroup now has features to deprecate EggAccelerator (see bug 85780)

Also, egg-screen-exec stuff has been deprecated: see http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/libegg/libegg/screen-exec/README

Also, EggIconList has become GtkIconView in GTK+ 2.6.

firestarter development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few years now. I contacted Tomas Junnonen (majix@iki.fi) because he is listed as Developer on project page but didn't get any response. I found firestarter on fedora wiki [1] under deprecated packages so i am closing all the bugs as WONTFIX. Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
