gtkmm 2.2.9
- gtkmm 2.2
gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. gtkmm 2.2 wraps GTK+ 2.2
http://www.gtkmm.org
This is the stable branch. gtkmm 2.3.x is also available, and
can be installed in parallel.
- Changes
2.2.9:
- Build:
- Removed DISABLE_DEPRECATED macros so that gtkmm 2.2 can build
with GTK+ 2.3.x. I didn’t release this previously because previous
versions of GTK+ 2.3.x were broken with gtkmm, but it’s OK now.
(Murray Cumming) - Removed unnecessary namespace qualification to fix build with
the Intel compiler. (Takashi Takekawa)
- Removed DISABLE_DEPRECATED macros so that gtkmm 2.2 can build
- Glib::ObjectBase: The default constructor, never before used,
now generates a custom GType, for use when creating new
implementations of Glib::Interfaces – for instance, see the new
custom tree model example in gtkmm. (Murray Cumming) - examples: Added treecustommodel example, though it’s much
better in gtkmm 2.4. (Murray Cumming, Christof Pettig) - documentation:
- Corrected name and install location of devhelp file.
- Fixed some documentation that mentinod freeing C objects.
- Added docs/internals/gtk_patches.txt with URLs of some
patches/bugs that were needed to underlying libraries, as a clue
for future developers. (Murray Cumming)
- spec file: Added devhelp file. (Eric Bourque)
- Download
http://www.gtkmm.org/download.shtml
You will need libsigc++ 1.2, available here: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1970
- Development
There is ongoing discussion on the mailing list: http://www.gtkmm.org/mailinglist.shtml
and in the #c++ channel on irc.gnome.org/

GNOME Development Release 2.5.4
GNOME Development Release 2.5.4
The latest GNOME Development Release is ready for your
bug-busting and testing pleasure! It is available for immediate
download on ftp ftp.gnome.org
and mirrors:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.5/2.5.4/sources/
tar.gz: 135M total
tar.bz2: 97M total
WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
This release is a snapshot of development code. Although it is
buildable and usable, it is primarily intended for testing and
hacking purposes. Like the Linux kernel, GNOME uses odd minor
version numbers to indicate development status. Please check the
2.5 start page for more information:
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/
Build Requirements
- The tarballs included in the release. 🙂
- Some very basic packages not distributed with this release,
such as image libraries, popt, and the freedesktop.org libraries
collection. Most of these will be included with or available for
your distribution, except the ‘shared-mime-info’ and
‘hicolor-theme’ modules – if you don’t install those, your desktop
will look ugly, but it will work. 🙂 - Docbook DTD 4.1.2, Docbook XSL stylesheets and a valid system
catalogue file for scrollkeeper (which in turn is required by many
desktop components for documentation).
Happy testing!
- The GNOME Release Team

gnome-games 2.5.6
gnome-games “Limiting Factor”
2.5.6
This release is for testing. No new features have been added
since 2.5.5 but there have been a lot of bugs fixed and there is
some revised code that needs testing.
You can find it at:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-games/2.5/
and mirrors.
- Now is the time to file bug reports ! ***
If you see any bugs in this release, report them. It’s too late
for UI changes (although they will be considered for 2.7) but
anything that crashes these games needs to be reported. Please try
and give a precise summary of how to reproduce the bug. Getting
stack traces in gnome-games is hard, but worth it (try running the
games as the user that installed them, e.g. root).
What other excuse do you need to play solitaire all day ?
What has changed:
- blackjack caches its calculations better. Now all game types
are cached (you should only see the progress dialog the first time
you play a rule set). Be warned that this can store up to a
megabyte of data in your home directory. Sharing of the cached
files will not be implemented for 2.6. - gnomine, gnome-stones, gnotravex and gnometris use a new
algorithm (OK, ugly hack) to set the size of their writing. The old
way was doing bad things whith some systems (especially those with
a high dpi). - The hint menu item in gnomine is now only available when it can
be used. - In Ailseriot dragging after a double-click works.
- Aisleriot documentation has been updated to mention the
statistics dialog. - Some old Spanish and Danish documentation for gnobots and gtali
has been updated from the old html format to docbook. The content
hasn’t changed, contributions that fix this are welcome. - gnibbles: key presses are now buffered so that fast turns are
guaranteed to work. - Various SVG files have been slimmed down (Thanks to Richard
Hoelscher).
And of course it will crash less often.

gtkmm 2.3.4
glibmm 2.3.5
- gtkmm and glibmm 2.4:
NOTE: This is probably your last chance to comment on the API
before the API freeze. WE NEED ACCESS TO A SUN BOX RUNNING A RECENT
VERSION OF THE FORTE COMPILER.
This is only on ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/
until someone finds time to put it on sourceforge as well.
This is the first version of glibmm/gtkmm to use the new
libsigc++ 2 API.
gtkmm provides a C++ interface to GTK+. The 2.3.x tarballs are
the unstable development series that will become the stable gtkmm
2.4. gtkmm 2.3/2.4 will wrap any additional API in GTK+ 2.4. glibmm
is now a separate module, for use in non-GUI software.
gtkmm 2.3/2.4 installs in parallel with gtkmm 2.2, so you can
install this unstable library without the risk of breaking existing
applications. This allows us to break ABI and API, though we will
try not to break API unless it is absolutely necessary.
But do be aware that the underlying unstable GTK+ 2.3 does not
install in parallel with GTK+ 2.2, so be careful if you apply it in
your normal prefix.
We recommend the use of jhbuild or garnome for testing in a
separate prefix.
The stable (API/ABI-frozen) gtkmm 2.4.0 will be released soon
after GTK+ 2.4.0.
gtkmm is on the official GNOME Platform Bindings release schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings/
- Changes
glibmm 2.3.5:
- Now uses libsigc++ 2 (Martin Schulze, Murray Cumming)
gtkmm 2.3.4:
(I will rewrite this, in NEWS, in detail when I get a chance.
See the ChangeLog) – Now uses libsigc++ 2 (Martin Schulze and
Murray Cumming)
– Wrapped and used Gtk::Requistion (Bryan Forbes)
– DND API now uses strings everywhere instead of Atoms. (Bryan
Forbes)
– Adedd IconInfo, TargetList (Bryan Forbes)
– Wrapped several enums. (Bryan Forbes)
– Lots more C++ificiation (Byran Forbes)
– example: book/dialogs/filechooser: Added buttons. (Matthew
Walton)
- Download
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/
and, soon:

You will need libsigc++ 1.2, available here: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1970
