Release Digest: GNOME, July 13, 2004

pygtk-0.6.12

  • Note: this is not relative to the current GTK+
    2.x-based PyGTK

Hello there,

I’m releasing today version 0.6.12 of PyGTK, off the 0.6 branch,
which is the original PyGTK branch based on GTK+ 1.2.

This version includes a small number of bugfixes and two API
additions which have been incorporated during the last two years of
stability. Summary of changes:

Bugfixes

  • Fixed GtkScrolledWindow’s use of `has_attr’
  • A fix for bug 96907: Crashes when calling emit() with less
    parameters than expected.
  • Check for non-existing directories in
    pygtk._get_available_versions
  • Implement proper exception handling in the GladeXML
    constructor.
  • Performance enhancement in bug 112395: Clean up __getattr__ and
    add __eq__/__nonzero__ to GtkObject.

New API

  • Wrapped GtkRadioButton.group()
  • Implemented GtkCList.set_focus_row() to work around a GTK+
    focus bug in the GtkCList.

Download it from

ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/python/v1.2/pygtk-0.6.12.tar.gz

There is no accompanying gnome-python release. This tarball is
identical to the release candidate that was announced earlier.
Thanks for everyone that provided bug reports, comments and fixes
for the branch, including Jon Nelson, Steve McClure and Andrew
Reid.

Take care,

Christian Robottom Reis
