I don't know, but I've CCed the libgda list so they can say. They should feel free to ignore the rest of this email. If it is not compatible or parallel-installable then that should be fixed in libgda 1.9.x itself, which is unstable anyway, and nobody, not even gnumeric, should be using it in a stable version, so anything goes. At the least, please do file bugs in GNOME's bugzilla for libgda. [1] I'm still amazed that Fedora is shipping some version of the unstable API and removed the stable API. That's not a stable development platform. > Does this matter at all for > Glom ?

Is the rest of gnome-python-extras also packaged separately? In debian/Ubuntu they package it as one big package. It should indeed be separate/modular, to avoid unwanted dependencies, but you need to do whatever Fedora is already doing. > Now i need to know whether this can > be compiled against libgda 1.9.xx, or if I also need to compile that > against 1.2.x from the compat package...
