Release Digest: GNOME, October 17, 2004

GHex 2.8.1

“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Earth!”

A quick follow-up to the still warm 2.8.0: I have fixed a build
bug that might have, under very special circumstances, caused an
incompatible version of dependencies (like glib or gtk) to be
pulled in the build, and a bug in the converter that caused only
one byte of hex to be displayed.

In the meantime, Adam, Takeshi, David, Miloslav and Tino have
updated en_CA, ja, en_GB, cs and nl translations.

At your disposal at

have fun,

libxklavier 1.10

Hi all

As a start of new libxklavier development series. I announce the
version 1.10 of the X keyboard utility library. This version
contains improved architecture of the configuration process – not
the entire configuration compilation process is performed on the
client side, so X server gets absolutely prepared X configuration –
this allows to eliminate problems where X server and X client have
different configuration bases.

The API and ABI were changed – so users of GNOME 2.8.x are not
supposed to use this version – they are recommended to stick to the
stable series 1.0x of the library. In contrast, anyone using
gnome-control-center and gnome-applets from CVS HEAD (and versions
2.9.x, when they are released) – have to upgrade.

Some minor bugfixes/tweaks were made as well.

Regards,

Sergey
