We do not have a build farm yet.. Now that we have the vmhost we
could. We could also set up 'mock' to build for various RPM-based
systems. It might be interesting to set up tinderbox, but I have
no experience with that.

Quoting Phil Longstaff <[email protected]>:
I've never looked into the issue. Is there a build farm we can use
with different versions of linux distros so that we can check the
build and limitations? Otherwise, we're limited by what developers
and testers have. I suppose VMs could help with this.

That's the one combination I wasn't able to test (gtkhtml that

SuSE 10.3 (x86_64).
What version of gnome, gtk, and gnome-print do you have?
pkg-config --modversion libgnome-2.0
2.16.0
pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
2.10.6
pkg-config --modversion libgnomeprint-2.2
2.12.1
Ah, yeah, Fedora-7 era GnomePrint (pre GtkPrint) libraries.
As we're in the process of moving completely to Webkit (at least
I hope that's the goal) I think it's /probably/ safe to ignore
these old libraries.
Well SuSE may be a bit slow on the gnome side. This distro is only about
one year old.
I revoke my statement. This coputer is still on SuSE 10.2 and the support
period for this distro has ended ...
Ahh, yeah, like I said, Fedora-7 era. I'm not sure offhand what version
of Gnome Fedora-8 or 9 has, but I would hope that we should support any
distros that were released by, say, May 1, 2008.
My only concern is going to be RHEL/CentOS. The most recent
release/update (5.3) probably still has a relatively old Gnome/Gtk. But
then again RHEL5 is old enough that it doesn't fall into the May 1, 2008
release-by date. So I honestly don't think I care that much about it.
GnuCash 2.2 works there just fine, and someone could backport the
dependencies if they really want to run bleeding-edge gnucash.
So I think we should target Fedora 9 and equivalent Ubuntu and SuSE
releases from early 2008.
