Hi Uli! Uli Scholler (2020-09-01): > When I received your initial bug report, I followed the advice given in > Perl's Gtk3 module documentation to "run s/Gtk2/Gtk3/ on [the] > application." Unfortunately, that didn't work at all and I put it aside.
Yeah, a mere s/Gtk2/Gtk3/ suffices only for very simple apps: there were incompatible API changes, and as soon as you use anything that comes from another namespace (e.g. Gdk) more porting work is needed. Thankfully that porting work is rather straightforward in most cases :) > However, encouraged by your remark that, according to popcon, there > seems to be some interest in TinyCA still, I took another shot and made > some progress towards a Gtk3 port.

If you hit big blockers, the upstream gtk-perl mailing list is often very helpful: its archives have answers to many questions in this area, and if not, feel free to ask :) > BTW, I keep the most up-to-date copy of the TinyCA source on Salsa > (https://salsa.debian.org/cpt_nemo-guest/tinyca). This is helpful, thank you.
