GNOME Goal: Drop Libsexy library

Summary

Some widgets from libsexy library are integrated in Gtk+, so we can eliminate libsexy dependency in some applications.

  • Replace SexyIconEntry by GtkEntry icon functionality (available in GTK+ 2.16)

  • Replace SexyUrlLabel by GtkLabel URL functionality (available in GTK+ 2.17.1)

Status of this goal

/!\ Note: Updated automatical stats can be found at http://www.gnome.org/~fpeters/reports/libsexy.html

{i} Tip: If you choose to work on a module, create the bug report on the GNOME bugzilla, and make it block bug 585385.
This way people will know someone already works on it, and won't duplicate the work you're doing.
