Re: README for Pango still says it's beta
On 19.01.2014 05:26, Brian Manning wrote: I was going to update the README for Pango and add/centralize contact info, bug reporting info, repos, etc, and I found this block of text in the INSTALLATION section: text block To avoid installing to a system directory, since this is a beta release, you can change the installation prefix at Makefile.PL time with perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/some/other/place /text block This is a verbatim copy of text in Glib's and Gtk2's README. It's not correct anymore: Glib, Gtk2 and Pango are not in beta. I'm guessing this is old and just never got changed, but I wanted to confirm before I create an RT ticket for it to be removed, then remove it. There's more text in the same part of the README describing different ways of telling Perl how to find Pango in a non-system-Perl library path; is that text worth keeping? It doesn't reflect the state of the art anymore, which would have you use INSTALL_BASE instead of PREFIX, or simply local::lib. But this state of the art might change again in the future. So yeah, I think it makes sense to simply remove that portion. ___ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
Cairo::GObject 1.004 available
Overview of changes in Cairo::GObject 1.004 [2014-01-18] === * Fix specification of requirements in the META files The Cairo::GObject tarball is available from: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk2-perl/Cairo-GObject-1.004.tar.gz (http://bit.ly/1dmivla) or from git: http://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Cairo-GObject/tag/?id=rel-1-00-4 (http://bit.ly/1idQGnc) Cairo::GObject registers Cairo's types (Cairo::Context, Cairo::Surface, etc.) with Glib's type systems so that they can be used normally in signals and properties. If you have encountered an error akin to this: GType CairoContext (15497280) is not registered with gperl -- then you need to use Cairo::GObject. ___ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list

Pango can be used anywhere that text layout is needed, but using Pango in conjunction with Cairo and/or Gtk2 provides a complete solution with high quality text handling and graphics rendering. ___ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
Next release deadline: Saturday, February 22nd 2014 at 00:00 UTC
Hi folks, Based on the Gnome 3.11.x release calendar [1], I am setting the deadline for code submissions for the next release of Gtk-Perl modules to be Saturday, February 22nd 2014 at 00:00 UTC. Please have all code submissions into the Gtk-Perl maintainers before the above deadline; please allow time for the maintainers to audit and test code submissions. If you have your favorite RT ticket[2][3] or Gnome bug tracker bug[4] that you would like looked at, don't be afraid to bring it up for discussion here on the mailing list. Once the above deadline date arrives, I will begin packaging any new code in the Gtk-Perl git repos. Once packaged, I will distribute it to the appropriate places, and post the release announcements shortly thereafter. If you have any questions about the above, please ask. Heads up for March, the release date will be March 22nd, 2014, at 00:00UTC.
