gtkmm 2.18 Windows installer?

Rate this Message:
Is anyone keen on a Windows installer for gtkmm 2.18? There is no GTK+
bundle yet, and Tor Lillqvist, the GTK+ Win32 maintainer, says this is because GTK+ 2.18 is still quite buggy on Windows (e.g. does not support the native Windows theme). As there are invidual zip packages for GTK+ 2.18 I can still create an installer if people think we/they need one. I think it's not too useful at the moment.

If GTK+ 2.18 is not good enough on Windows then I don't see much point in a gtkmm 2.18 on Windows. Unless you just want to get more attention for that bug. What's the bug URL? -- murrayc@... www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list |

This is for the theme not working: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598299 Otherwise gtk-demo seems to work well, though others have reported that their applications behave badly with GTK+ 2.18.

But without filing bugs? It sounds like a gtkmm 2.18 installer would indeed be useful, and it sounds like Tor should be encouraged to do a GTK+ installer. That would mean that we all had the same stuff to work with, so we could get some real information about those bugs. -- murrayc@... www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list |

We don't want someone new using it and then abandoning gtk on the grounds that it's buggy. Let it be for the moment.

[...] The installer would have to be marked as "instable" or "buggy" or "beta" or something. That way we can follow up the remaining bugs without letting people stumble over it that were looking for pre-packaged, great, 100%-bugfree software.

Yah! I totally agree with the idea of making it unstable, what an
excellent idea!
