Re: gEDA-dev: Some gschem misfeatures noted this morning (10.5.2006)
Fair enough on DBUS, but expect to have some developer discussion
about it . . . . .
I am using GTK2.8 on one machine, GTK2.6 on another, and GTK2.4 on a
third. I found that if I change your GTK rev level to 2.6 in your
configure.ac, the program still runs on my 2.6 box. I have't tried on
the 2.4 box yet.
Thanks!
