Package: gabber2
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Hi,
While investigating the usefulness of older Gtk/Gnome/Gconf/Glade
bindings, it seemed gabber2 is one of the last packages using them.
However, the upstream tarball seems to indicate support (and
preference) for newer C++ bindings, in configure.ac:
## Check modules
PKG_CHECK_MODULES([DEPS], gtkmm-2.4 gconfmm-2.6 libglademm-2.4, [],
[PKG_CHECK_MODULES([DEPS],
gtkmm-2.0 gconfmm-2.0 libglademm-2.0, [
AC_DEFINE([OLD_GTKMM],,"Old gtkmm")
AC_DEFINE([OLD_SIGC],,"Old sigc++")
])
])
Attached is a patch changing your build-dep. It doesn't make the
gabber2 package more or less buildable than it is right now (given the
state of the C++ transition).
I suppose you'll need to version the added build-dependencies once the
C++ transition is over for the packages:
libgtkmm-2.4-dev libgconfmm-2.6-dev libglademm-2.4-dev
I would appreciate if you could confirm it is ok for you to switch to
the newer build-deps so that we can prepare the removal of the older
C++ bindings.
Bye,
