gtkmm-2.9.4 does not build against gtk+-2.9.3. Hopefully, gtkmm-2.9.5 will be released soon. -Joseph
The code in CVS [as of 13jun] builds. -Joseph
No it doesn't (bug 344788, bug 344787, bug 344771, bug 344786, and bug 344789 -- most of which have been fixed since 13jun, though).
I used the Changelog to determine the date, which was not a good idea. I am actually using code from 15June, which does build on my system. 'make distcheck' even works. That being said, the important question is "When will gtkmm-2.9.5" be released?" -Joseph
As per comments in bug 344788, it appears that it is more likely to build with gcc-4.x as gtkmm's autogen only automatically turns on errors for warnings when building with gcc-3.x. This seems to explain why I couldn't get it to build without lots of little patches (though they are all relatively trivial), and the reason you probably could get it to build. But yeah, I agree with you on when-will-next-release-be-available as being the important question for this bug. :)
I'll try to do a release soon. I thought the main problem was that current cvs would not build with the latest gtk+ tarball, but maybe I'm wrong.
Hopefully we'll have more luck with 2.9.5, though I haven't tested it against a tarball yet. I'd appareciate it if you could.
Apparently gtkmm 2.9.5 builds fine with the latest GTK+ tarball. Thanks for all the fixes and feeback.
It does... You are welcome. -Joseph
