Or at least some mondo-large plugin packs. Some plugins have limited usefulness, large external dependencies, or both, and as such should not be redistributed. > E) ACK! GNOME IS DEAD! HE SAID IT AGAIN! (yet, if you're using > gtk<anything>, you're using glib...) Perhaps *Gnome-libs* is not so dead as I once thought, but it's not overwhelmingly important any more. Most of the more useful bits are in GTK+ and friends now, and I still stand by that statement. That said, I plan for us to have a GNOME port by Abi version 2.0. It will have: 1) GNOME About dialog 2) GNOME URL opener instead of our hackish browser auto-detection 3) Bonobo control for Abi, like 1.0.2 did 4) Gnome Print (this may be made a requirement for the GTK+ build too) 5) *Maybe* Bonobo container, so we can embed apps 6) *Maybe* GConf 7) *Maybe* a nautilus view All things considered, our GNOME2 port will only involve a few ifdefs and a few additional files, instead of the massive beast that the gnome 1.4 port was.
