** Description changed:

+ In order to get the archive into a consistent state, we should complete
+ the transition from Clutter 0.8 to 1.0
+ 
+ Remaining reverse depends on 0.8:
+ 
+ libclutter-0.8-0
+ Reverse Depends:
+   python-clutter
+   liblua5.1-gnome-0
+   libclutter-perl
+   libclutter-gst-0.8-0
+   libclutter-cairo-0.8-0
+   libchamplain-gtk-0.3-1
+   libchamplain-0.3-1
+   geeqie
+   libclutter-0.8-dev
+   libclutter-0.8-dbg
+   gobject-introspection-repository
+ 
+ Actions needed:
+ 
+ pyclutter - sync 1.0.0-1 from unstable
+ 
+ clutter-gst - upgrade to new release (package ready for upload)
+ clutter-perl - upgrade to new release (depends on clutter-gst)
+ 
+ libchamplain - new release is currently in Debian NEW, fake sync from
+ pkg-gnome svn or wait for it to clear NEW
+ 
+ lua-gtk - patch in upstream CVS
+ 
+ geeqie - make sure it works with new libchamplain / clutter
+ 
+ gir-repository - further investigation needed
+ 
+ clutter-cairo - deprecated upstream, can be remove from archive once
+ transition is complete
+

  Release notes
  
      * This is the first stable release of the 1.* cycle
      * Requires Clutter core >= 1.0.0
      * The bindings for Clutter-GStreamer and Clutter-GTK have been dropped from the PyClutter module, and they will be shipped separately as PyClutter-GStreamer (pyclutter-gst) and PyClutter-GTK (pyclutter-gtk). The new modules are already available as separate repositories.
  
  Changes from 0.8
  
      * Require Clutter core >= 1.0.0
      * Provide better bindings for the Cogl API
      * Add more examples ported from the clutter core interactive tests
      * Dropped the in-tree bindings of clutter-gtk and clutter-gst: you will have to install pyclutter-gtk and pyclutter-gst respectively to be able to import cluttergtk and cluttergst.
      * Allow accessing child properties for clutter.Container
      * Allow iterating over the children of a clutter.Container using the native Python iterator support
      * Allow creating custom ChildMeta classes from Python
      * Mark the classes removed from upstream Clutter as “deprecated”; trying to instantiate one of the deprecated classes will result in the equivalent class in Clutter 1.0 to be created and a warning printed out on the console
      * Override the __repr__ and __str__ methods for clutter.Color: the former will print out a wtring that can be used through eval() to create a copy of the color; the latter will print out the hexadecimal representation of the color.
      * Override the __str__ method of clutter.Event: it will now print more information on the event (type, time, source actor) and per-event type fields (button, key, related actor, etc.).
      * Deprecated clutter.stage_get_default() in favour of an optional argument to clutter.Stage(); calling:
  
            >>> clutter.Stage(default=True)
  
        will return the default Stage singleton; the default argument is optional and it defaults to False.
      * Allow passing the following values to methods accepting a clutter.Color:
            o a clutter.Color (e.g.: clutter.Color(255, 0, 0, 255))
            o a 4-tuple of RGBA values (e.g.: (255, 0, 0, 255))
            o a hexadecimal representation of the color (e.g.: ‘#ff0000ff’)
