Yes, it should be possible. I've been a bit distracted lately and haven't put as much time into managing the deps for the autopackages. One thing that would certainly help is to get someone running a GLIBC_2.3 system to make the packages. Are you interested in learning how to do it?
I would have no problem compiling the autopackages (I compile .deb files for another package on sf so I am not a complete noob at that :-) ) but I do see a problem looming. Firstly, I would have to compile at work so it would definately not be a daily thing, probably not even weekly - irregular at best.

It appears we are using a widget from GTK2.10 even though I don't think we officially require 2.10 yet. Does anyone remember where we were on pushing to require newer GTK versions? (I'm waiting on a feature from GTK 2.12 :-) )

Secondly (and probably more importantly) I am going to have to sort out the GTK problems first. I am fully up-to-date on the 'Etch' packages and my GTK setup is too old. This means that every other Etch user out there has the same problem. I understand the reasons for going for unstable or testing to get the up-to-date libraries but, unfortunately, the machine in question is our mailserver and I am not willing to go off stable for that. Having said that, I will see what backports are available for GTK and if need be, look into compiling from sources.
I will let you know what happens.
Thanks,
