libgconf-java-devel-2.12.6-6.0.3mdv2010.0.i586.rpm

@deprecated

libgconf-java 2.12.6 is part of the java-gnome 2.x family of libraries which
had few users and no mature applications built using them. As result,
java-gnome 2.x never made it to production quality and remains both buggy and
incomplete. A major re-engineering effort, termed java-gnome 4.0, is underway
to produce an entirely new set of Java bindings. The 2.x family as a whole has
therefore been declared deprecated pending imminent removal.

Those interested in using GTK and GNOME from Java are invited to join the
java-gnome hackers in their effort to bring the new 4.0 bindings up to speed.

Note to developers: As has been advertised for several release cycles now,
achieving an algorithmic mapping of the underlying GNOME libraries required a
significant ABI break from 2.x to 4.0. You are advised not to use the old
libraries for new projects.

Note to downstream packagers: There will not be a libgconf-java as a
individually released library in 4.0. There may be something called gconf-java,
and just possibly it will end up under the name java-gconf, but most likely
there will just be a .jar and .so build product from a single module source
release. For further details, see http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/
