Re: gnome-terminal and vte: works fine
I've had posted for a while vte and gnome-terminal on my Cygwin Ports repository[1], with the vte patch based on the Cygwin Gnome2 project. [1] ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports/ Cool, I was not aware of this. My patch was based on a patch I found at http://www.oliwen.com/bamanzi/cygwin/release/gtk2/vte/ scrollkeeper is also available via Cygwin Ports. So perhaps it compiles fine if you just have this installed. I hope this makes someone happy. :-) How do we now go ahead and get these packages into the netinstaller? My progress in adding GNOME packages into the net release has been slowed somewhat due to other requisite packages which have yet to be updated in the release. No problems; I will use the packages from cygwinports. There's a lot of stuff there it seems.

I've had posted for a while vte and gnome-terminal on my Cygwin Ports repository[1], with the vte patch based on the Cygwin Gnome2 project. [1] ftp://sunsite.dk/projects/cygwinports/ I tested gnome-panel from this repository, but it does not really seem to work as expected. The default panel was completely empty and adding the workspace switcher did not work.

Attached is the patch for vte (based on another patch I found on the net, very small modifications to get the patch to apply with latest vte). vte is a package neccessary for the compilation of gnome-terminal. gnome-terminal compiles right out of the box (2.12.0, latest version) but there is some problems with the help files (because of missing scrollkeeper-preinstall). If you go into each of the help/XX subdirectories and run a manual make gnome-terminal-XX.omf.out, it will generate these files anyway, but I have not tested whether the online help works or not. Good to know. You might want to test these before adding the package to the distribution. I hope this makes someone happy. :-) How do we now go ahead and get these packages into the netinstaller? Two ways. One is http://cygwin.com/setup.html, but that requires an active maiintainer, who is subscribed to the cygwin-apps list. The other is providing a custom mirror with just that package, and having the users download it unofficially (look at the setup.exe homepage link on the above page). If you choose to go with the first approach, you'll need to ITP the package(s) on cygwin-apps.
