Gnome Video Arcade for debian

[Emmanuel Kasper]

I found out there last week there used to be a Gnome Video Arcade some years ago in mentors.debian.net ( but not in Debian )
I wrote to the author and here was its answer.

Ciao Emmanuel,

great to hear someone that would be an Debian Maintainer, I think that you have found my first and only GVA package, good program, the best for GNOME, if I remember right I found no one interested in sponsoring it. I hope that you have more luck. :)

I don't have any updated version on my personal repository, but if you need some help, I could help you with pleasure.

Let me know

Cheers,
francesco

PS
have you found it on mentors?

Oops. I overlooked this message and packaged from scratch. Anyway, I used
the GNOME team's conventions for the package, so the old package was
probably of little use.

Right now we have the GTK2 version, but as soon as Matthew says GTK3 is
more or less ready to go, I'll upload a GTK3 version to experimental.
