Comment (by dbevans):
The plan here, with gtk4 on the horizon (beta in March 2017), is to get
rid of glib1 gtk1 and gnome1 and their remaining dependencies. gnome1 and
friends have been removed already. glib1 (#52762) and gtk1 (#52735) are
on the block so to speak and many dependents have been removed already.
See the tickets for details.
So, yes, I can wait on removing xdelta1 until all the other dependents of
glib1 have been removed but that's not so many at this point. Not more
than a couple of weeks. Is there really anything that you use that's
based on glib1/gtk1 that can't be updated/replaced with something that
uses glib2/gtk2? I'm just trying to get rid of things that are so out of
date that they are hard to maintain and keep working.
Concerning pristine-tar, are you sure it's still on MacPorts? I don't see
it in the port tree. Or does it go by another name? See the quoted
tickets for the list of known dependents.
