versioning suggests it might be unstable

[Comment 2 Gustavo Ribeiro Alves 2004-08-23 20:19:38 UTC]

According to http://home.wtal.de/petig/Gtk/index.html it does not appears to be unstable (it does not say it is stable either). 

He also wrote:

"Use cvs to get the latest fixes,  I only release an official tarball here once I feel that the old release is outdated too much."

Considering this, and the numbering diference in portage, we can assume that 2.0.0.1 is "too much outdated".

so i can take it you are a user of this package. What improvements does it bring that this needs to be prioritized ?

[Comment 4 Gustavo Ribeiro Alves 2004-08-24 11:02:53 UTC]

The new version compiles cleanly (at least on my machine) by just bumping the ebuild.

Here's the changelog since 2.0.0.1:

Version 2.5.0
- support CAN_DEFAULT/HAS_DEFAULT (Howdy Pierce)
- initial gtk+ 2.4 work (test)
- fixed nasty autoconf bug (missing closing bracket on autoconf2.50+)
- hopefully fixed gettext/autotool bugs [working with gtk2.4, gnome1, gtk1]
- recognize and look for gtkmm 2.4, default to compatibility code

Version 2.0.0.2
- use AC_CONFIG_HEADERS on autoconf2.50+
- some error checking for embedded images
- try to determine automake/autoconf postfix for newer autoconf setups
- default to all widgets visible if all are private (beginners' #1 error)
        and tell the users about this in the headers (which they tend to read
                before any documentation ...)
- do not generate acconfig.h for autoconf2.50+
- gnome1 fixes for button (stock_pixmap)

i wasn't asking for the changelog.. you dodged the question...

[Comment 6 Gustavo Ribeiro Alves 2004-08-24 12:46:24 UTC]

Yeah, I did :)

The main improvement is support for the gtk 2.4 libraries. I didn't try the 2.0.0.1 with it since the docs said it didn't support, so I installed 2.5. I had no trouble with it yet.

[Comment 7 foser (RETIRED) 2004-08-24 17:09:46 UTC]

but that is in testing according to the changelog & that sort of gives me the impression it is a devel release.
