G-Golf
GNOME: (Guile Object Library for)
G-Golf is a Guile Object Library for GNOME.
G-Golf is tool to develop fast and feature-rich graphical applications,
with a recognizable look and feel.
* Install
Dependencies and complete installation instructions are given in the
distributed INSTALL file, or here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/g-golf/install.html
* Noteworthy changes in 0.8.6
Here is a summary of the noteworthy changes in this release, also
available in NEWS file and on the G-Golf website.
** Dependencies
*** Gtk-4 examples
Gtk-4.0 >= 4.22.1
Note: This depenency actually also applies to G-Golf version 0.8.5,
but I forgot to mention it as part of the release, also failed to
update the related location where this is mentionned (the INSTALL
distributed file, the documentation and the web site) - all fixed now.
** Code enhancement
*** Callable array argument may be NULL, despite GI anotation
GI callable array argument anotation sometimes declares the argument
can't be NULL, where in reality it can: one example is the
g-variant-new-tuple children arg.
To fix this problem, G-Golf now implements an exception mechanism,
extensible by users if necessary (see commit 9f71ea7 and g-golf affected
modules for a complete understanding of what's in place and how to
extend it if necessary).

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig
file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify g-golf-0.8.6.tar.gz
If that command fails because you don't have the required public
key, then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys A3057AD7
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command
