I just put up a new snapshot of the extension class based pygtk.  It is
available at:
  ftp://ftp.daa.com.au/pub/james/python/pygtk-0.7.0-unstable-dont-use.tar.gz

As I have said before, you can build this, but don't install it if you
need a working pygtk/gnome-python on your system.  You can run the
examples by setting PYTHONPATH appropriately.  For instance, from the base
directory of pygtk, you can do:
  PYTHONPATH=. python examples/ide/browse.py

I have added a statement to import ltihooks in gtk/__init__.py, so you
don't need to explicitely import it to get examples to work without
installing the development pygtk (ltihooks is a set of import hooks that
gives python knowledge about .la libtool libraries when trying to import
modules).

I have been wondering if it is worth stabilising the extension class
branch and releasing it as a new version for use with gtk-1.2 (which would
also mean converting over the rest of gnome-python), or go straight on to
port to gtk-1.3/4.  Does anyone have any comments on this?

Another thing I have been thinking about for the gnome-2.0 release
(whenever that happens) is whether it would be a good idea to not include
pygtk as part of the gnome-python package (so it would have to be
installed separately).  Does this sound like a good idea?

James.
