Currently maemo gtk+ requires one feature from glib, namely caching of gtkrc as bytecode-ish format. (It's in glib/gscanner.[ch], look for cache.) hildon-libs and hildon-fm require multiple extra symbols exported from modified gtk+ (most of them should have other than gtk_ prefix, but not all.) It is on my todo list to improve our documentation about the dependencies and changes to widgets. One of the longer term goals is to be able to build Hildon widgets on top of stock gtk+. I do not yet have a schedule planned, though. > How much work would be required for making Python development > possible on any *nix style platform with an X server by compiling GTK > and Hildon and their Python wrappers for the hosting architecture and > installing them in a non-conventional directory prefix to prevent > conflicts with the usual GTK installation? That would be an interesting exercise. I believe Murray Cumming has been doing something close to this with jhbuild, but I haven't checked which packages are included in the module sets. But if python bindings are included, it should be as simple as 'jhbuild build python-hildon' if memory serves. -- Tommi Komulainen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
