Yo.
A new release, guile-gnome-platform-2.7.94.tar.gz:
http://download.gna.org/guile-gnome/releases/guile-gnome-platform-2.7.94.tar.gz
If you already have guile-gnome installed, you should make uninstall
from the directory you configured with, or otherwise blow away your
installation: libs, scheme modules, examples, pkg-config files, etc.
Changes:
* pkg-config files are now versioned, e.g. guile-gnome-glib-0. This
allows parallel installability. If you have an app that uses
guile-gnome, its configure script should be updated.
* The guile-gnome wrapper script adds /usr/local/... entries to the
load path so that users with g-wrap, etc in /usr/local are not
surprised.
* Examples have been updated to use the "exec guile-gnome-0" strategy.
I don't think that the development side of guile-gnome will move much
from now. I just rolled this release so that apps can check for
upward-compatible pkg-config files.
As an example, see
http://ambient.2y.net/wingo/pub/photoblogger-0.3.tar.gz. I think it's a
nice example of guile-gnome packaging on a number of fronts:
* It can run (including loading glade files) from the sourcedir or
installed.
* It has the right break between code-in-modules and the wrapper
script.
* It parses options before loading guile-gnome so that --help is
speedy.
* There is a --debug option that will drop you in a repl if you need
to hack on the app.
* It has a good examples of a (photoblogger config) module containing
configure-time options.
* configure.ac checks for the right things.
If you're making a pure guile app using guile-gnome, I'd suggest using
the photoblogger distribution a template, when you are ready to release.
For more info on the app, see
