Hi, Some time ago I've asked Tor how his Windows build environment looked like and he shared everything to be able to recreate it (thanks again!). The various mails we exchanged and the resulting directory structure and scripts can be found here: https://www.github.com/dieterv/legacynativebuilds [1]
I've used this information to build updated packages of GTK+-2.24.5 and a GTK+-bundle [2] that goes with it, in response to for example: - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=653995 coming from https://bugs.launchpad.net/zim/+bug/783388 - this thread on PyGTK's mailing list: http://www.daa.com.au/pipermail/pygtk/2011-May/019755.html The only differences between these and the packages already on ftp.gnome.org/www.gtk.org are: - gtk+_2.24.5-1_win32.sh and gtk+_2.24.5-1_win32.log (included with gtk+-dev_2.24.5-1_win32.zip) live in src/dieterv/packaging instead of src/tml/packaging in the hopes of making it clear Tor has not built these (so users of these don't go bugging him for support); - the MSVC-compatible import libraries are missing from gtk+-dev_2.24.5-1_win32.zip (lib/gailutil.lib, lib/gdk-win32-2.0.lib and lib/gtk-win32-2.0.lib), I simply don't own a copy of Visual Studio 6 so these files have not been generated during build... Other than that, these are drop-in updates compatible with what's already on ftp.gnome.org/www.gtk.org. As such, is there any interest in hosting these files on ftp.gnome.org/www.gtk.org? If there is, I'll gladly "do the work" and also provide a patch for http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php After that, I can go ahead and build an updated PyGTK All-in-one installer (see www.pygtk.org or ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/pygtk/2.24/) and glade3-bundle_3.8.0 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634978). And before someone asks, both are *not* compatible with the binaries provided on build.opensuse.org (due to intl.dll/libintl-8.dll differences). Thanks, Dieter [1] I'm struggling to pour the information into a text suitable for live.gnome.org (help appreciated)!, but the information in this repo combined with the .sh script included with the binaries on ftp.gnome.org are enough to replicate a working build environment by anyone motivated enough to actually do so :) [2] https://github.com/dieterv/legacynativebuilds/downloads _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
