I'm mostly just terrified by how many people seem to have come to expect Meld to work from a git HEAD checkout. I mean... *I* expect it to work but then it would be a worry if I didn't. GSettings/dconf is actually really unpleasant here. I don't know of any sensible way I can have Meld work without a build step anymore. (It'll be a minimal build step, but still...) We *could* try to run glib-compile-schemas if we think we're in a checkout, but that's not the sanest notion ever. cheers, Kai _______________________________________________ meld-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/meld-list
