A possible problem is that all of these extra dependencies have to be shipped in macOS and Windows packages. If in any of these dependencies serious bugs (e.g. security) are found, we need to ship updated packages. A problem like this does not exist on Linux since you would typically simply update the distribution packages (although not sure how that will work for Flatpak). A potential solution could be to write a Mac-specific GIO TLS backend that depends on macOS system libraries which can be shipped instead of the default TLS backend that depends on gnutls. regards, -kris. _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list
