gtkmm 2.4.4

gtkmm and glibmm 2.4

gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. gtkmm 2.4 wraps additional API in GTK+ 2.4. gtkmm 2.4 installs in parallel with gtkmm 2.2, so you can have both installed at the same time. glibmm is now a separate module, for use in non-GUI software.

gtkmm stays in-sync with GTK+ by following the official GNOME release schedule: http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Bindings for the rest of the GNOME Platform are also available, and are also API-stable.

Changes

gtkmm 2.4.4:

• More gcc 3.4 build fixes. (Daniel Elstner)
• Gtk::StockItem: Use the global translation domain when no other translation domain has been specified. (Daniel Elstner)
• Gtk::Action, ToggleAction, RadioAction, IconTheme: Constructors are now protected so that you can derive from these classes.
• Gtk::Container: Avoid warning about unimplemented GtkContainer::remove vfunc when deriving directly from Gtk::Container. (Murray Cumming)

Liferea 0.5.1

Liferea 0.5.1

Liferea (Linux Feed Reader) is a fast, easy to use, and easy to install GNOME news aggregator for online news feeds. It supports a number of different feed formats including RSS/RDF, CDF, Atom, OCS, and OPML.

Bugfixes

• When URLs are passed to an external browser they are now escaped correctly. (Lars Lindner)
• When a feed could not be downloaded after the subscription it was missing a cache file. This caused an error message each time the program starts. This is fixed now. (Lars Lindner)
• Debian bug #254959 reported by Martin-Eric Racine was fixed. No Liferea recognizes RSS 1.0 Creative Commons license information. (Lars Lindner)
• Better favicon detection (more coming in the next release).
• Feed properties (such as titles) are now saved when they change. (Nathan Conrad)
• Compiles on Solaris, and is hopefully more portable now. (Nathan Conrad)
• Feed update locking issues were fixed. (Nathan Conrad)
• Several memleaks were fixed.

Changes

• Favicons are now processed with gdkpixbuf and saved to disc in PNG format. Images with 24bit colors and sizes other than 16x16 are now supported. (Nathan Conrad)

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS BREAKS FAVICON CACHE DOWNWARD COMPATIBILITY WITH OLDER RELEASES! WHEN YOU FALLBACK YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR ICONS.

• Now a short help text is displayed in the HTML view after startup. (Lars Linder)
• Updated networking code. Many more things, such as adding a new feed, are processed in the background. (Nathan Conrad)
• Improved preferences for selecting how to open a link in an external browser. (Nathan Conrad)
• Popup-window notifications of new items. This is a first implementation and we are open for your critics and suggestions! (Karl Soderstrom)
