Now that this seems to be working reliably ("seems to be" because it

should build it (It seems pointless for me to measure the build
using differnet options from what will be in the book).
Upstream changed to using cairo-gtk3 as the default a little while
ago, but we are still defaulting to cairo-gtk2. I would prefer to
follow upstream and use gtk3.
Note that I will be uploading a patch to fix it for gtk-3.20
(changes in gtk mean the scrollbar sliders no longer appear without
the patch) - this will be *required* (it has been accepted
upstream).
As part of the GTK+-3.20.6 update that I will be pushing in later on
tonight/today (depending on what time it is in the world), this change
is mentioned in its ChangeLog. Would this bug that was fixed fix it?:
766440 Scale slider button has stopped discerning and rendering
I would also like to upload - and mention (as *optional*) a patch to
allow people to use system graphite2 and system harfbuzz : gentoo
have been using this for a couple of releases, but it is stuck
waiting for review at mozilla (the bug was originally raised a long
time ago).
Objections ? Comments ?
No objections from me. Note that I will be updating GTK+ to 3.20.6
within the next few hours, so it might be worth checking with
GTK+-3.20.6 before putting that patch in :-)
