One of the things I wanted to get done before 2.6 was dropping our
dependency on libgnome. For the reasons why, see [1] and [2].
With my last series of commits, I managed to drop our dependency on
libgnome, libgnomeui and their dependencies. The only real gnome
dependency remaining is libgnomecanvas. But according to the information
in [2] there currently doesn't seem to be an official alternative for it
yet. So that should be ok.
I adapted the windows build scripts to no longer install and ship the
dropped libraries. The Windows installer got 4Mb smaller as a result :)
It may be interesting for the other platform builders to do a similar
cleanup (GnuCash/OSX-Quarz, Macports,...)
These are the libraries I dropped from the Windows build:
- gnome-vfs
- libbonobo
- libbonoboui
- libgnome
- libgnomeui
- popt
You can check if your build scripts still depend on these. The should be
safely removable since r22381.
