Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libclutter-0.4-dev
Proposed changes: This is a bug created for Feature Freeze Exception,
to request that the libclutter libraries be updated from v0.2 to v0.4
Potential impact on the distribution: libclutter v0.4 is backward
compatible with v0.2. However, if there are other components in gutsy
that use the clutter libraries, there is a potential that these
components will break.
A rationale for the exception / benefit of the change: The ubuntu-
mobile user interface makes use of OpenedHand's Clutter libraries. Some
of the code depends on v0.4 of the libraries. Currently only v0.2 is
part of gutsy. If the current version of the clutter libraries is not
updated then some compromises will need to be made with regard to which
Clutter features can be used. At a minimum the home screen will not be
able to be based on the current Clutter code. One advantage Ubuntu has
if it uses Clutter is to show potential customers a way to create rich
graphical user interfaces using OpenGL.
