I suspect this will not be a problem because GtkAda 2.24 already supports GtkBuilder and no longer supports libglade. See the file /usr/share/ada/adainclude/gtkada/gtkada-builder.ads provided with the package, it contains this: -- This package provides a high-level API for using Gtk.Builder and -- user interface files produced with the GUI builder glade-3. This, of course, assumes that all versions of glade-3 emit XML with the same schema. Is that assumption correct? Furthermore, GtkAda uses the Buildable interface of GTK+ to build the widgets from the XML description of the user interface. This suggests (but I have never tried or verified) that any incompatibilities between the XML emitted by glade 3.10 and GtkAda will be detected at run time. I encourage you to try for yourself. As regards package dependencies, since it is possible to use GtkAda without glade (i.e. program the UI by hand), and since glade is never used at run time anyway, a dependency on glade is not appropriate. -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gtk-gnome-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
