In msegui last commit, no need to use the -dglibc255 or -dglibc20 compiler 
parameters, the define is done in the units when the OS is Linux/AMD64 or  
Linux/i386.

Hello Vasi.

>personally I use your fork

Note that, for msegui, you need to add the -dglibc255 compiler parameter for 
Linux AMD64 and -dglibc20 for Linux i386.
This will assign the libc.so.6 methods used by msegui with the right signed 
symbol table.

Thank you Fred, personally I use your fork and thank you also for the themes. 
It will be a great starting point.

It is quiet indeed on the forums regarding this, but probably there are lots of 
discussions behind the scene... maybe in a private part of the forum, where 
only devs have the access... Of course, this means absolutely nothing if there 
are no positive outcomes... But let's hope... :P

About msegui-themes, I agree some demos are welcome.
I dont know what is the status of msegui-themes, Martin was working on it.

Maybe you could become the msegui-theme explorer, see what cefou has already 
done and see what is not working.
If you jump into it, I will follow you.
Is not the first time when I try to learn what Cefou did... Probably I will go

"The only trouble could be if nobody care anymore of msegui."

Is the only viable alternative to Lazarus and LCL... I bet the majority of 
Lazarus users have MSEide+MSEgui into their toolbox. But it would help if the 
gurus of various parts of msegui would write some guides to help newcomers to 
continue the development when the time comes...

Also, if @cefou would have time to create two themes, one light, another dark, 
at least similar to what Linuxmint has on Mate and Cinnamon... it would help 
even more with the adoption for commercial projects... Yeah, I know, I'm 
stressing this out, but look is essential and the complexity of msegui 
regarding look might scare the LCL user... I bet the default look of msegui is 
the main reason potential users are fading away (the young ones) ...

I think there is only one db-msegui guru and it is Med. ;-)

You did not cause any trouble, Med has directly found the problem.
Also I keep all your fixes about mse_dynlib, so part of your fixes are commited.
The only trouble could be if nobody care anymore of msegui.

Thanks for your great work Sieghard.

Hello.

In  there are 2 new skin-demos in /mseuniverse/skins/fredvs/: fcarbonskin and 
fsilverskin.

To use the skins in your application, copy fcarbonskin.pas, fcarbonskin.mfm, 
fcarbomskin_mfm.pas and load_fcarbonskin.pas into your project folder.
In your main-form unit, add load_fcarbonskin in the uses section.

For fsilverskin it is the same trick using the fsilverskin units.

Those demos use lightly rounded frames for buttons.
