the pygtk maintainer moved some of the required infrastructure into pygobject during this development cycle. if pyclutter starts depending on bleeding edge pygobject then the dependency on pygtk can mostly be removed - I hope. I'll try and see if pyclutter trunk can do the switch, otherwise it'll have to wait for pyclutter 1.0. > If I want to use clutter in an environment that only supports > OpenGLES (with no X11 bindings) am I restricted to just using the ‘C’ > binding? using python on embedded devices in my experiene isn't such a good idea, especially for long running tasks, given the tendency of python < 2.6 to leak like a victorian pipe. if you want to rapidly prototype something I can suggest Vala[1], but it's still a moving target so it might not fit the bill. ciao, Emmanuele.
