Yes. It's all programmatic. A long time (5 years? 8 years?) ago I had issues
with gtk3 and just froze gretl it at gtk2. Time to change.
You can see the settings thanks for our "all sources viewable" server:
- this line in debian/control governs what is present when gretl builds
https://sources.debian.org/src/gretl/2017d-2/debian/control/#L6
- these lines in debian/rules has the configure call
https://sources.debian.org/src/gretl/2017d-2/debian/rules/#L41-L53
So I just made changes to both these and will try a build. It should just work.
Snapshot from ongoing build:
Configuration:
Installation path: /usr
Use readline library: yes
Use gnuplot for graphs: yes
Use pdflatex for typesetting: yes
Use libgsf for zip/unzip: no
sse2 support for RNG: no
OpenMP support: yes
MPI support: yes
AVX support for arithmetic: no
Build with GTK version: 3.0
Build gretl documentation: no
Use Lucida fonts: no
Build message catalogs: yes
Build gretl addons: no
X-12-ARIMA support: yes
TRAMO/SEATS support: yes
libR support: yes
libsvm support: no
ODBC support: yes
JSON parsing support: yes
Experimental audio support: no
Use xdg-utils in installation: no
LAPACK libraries:
-llapack -lblas -lgfortran
Now type 'make' to build gretl. xdg-utils seems like a low-hanging fruit...
We could probably tweak one or two more but keep in mind that we do need
support on 12 different architectures. Not all of them have everything.
This was on my x86_64 aka amd64.
But thanks for being attentive. Nothing better for a maintainer that an
alert upstream team :)
Happy 2018, Dirk

| Your package depends on gtksourceview2 which has not had a new release

|
| Please port your package to GTK3 and gtksourceview3 and related
| maintained libraries. Otherwise, please consider requesting that your
| package be removed from Debian to help us complete this goal.
