* Granted, part 3 of THGTTG was not the best, but important concepts * like ``Someone Else's Problem'' should definitely stay in the * collective subconscious. ;-) Aw, stop that. You're giving me a headache. ;) * > So you're saying it should work if I reinstall gtk? * * Depends on whether configure finds /usr/local/bin/gtk-config first or * /usr/X11R6/bin/gtk-config. I hate it. And that depends on? (Yes, I hate it too.) * Well, the author of py-gtk just wrote he'd be moving on to * gtk-1.1. This may or may not mean that gtk-1.1 is incompatible to * gtk-1.0, I can't tell. I see. He might be saying he's not going to support gtk-1.0 anymore. The incompatibility might be only in one direction. * Why would we need different ports for the two * versions if they were compatible? Vanilla said 1.0 is the stable version and 1.1 is the development version. Vanilla, if they are compatible but you wanted a different port to test it while the bugs are hashed out, you don't need to make them coexist, just mark gtk11 with MANUAL_PACKAGE_BUILD="beta testing" or something. When gtk11 is deemed reliable enough, we'll switch all the dependencies over. Satoshi
