[opensuse-factory] Should Yast2 be built with GTK3?
Recent version of Yast2-gtk looks completely alien among other GTK applications. In 12.1 only Gnome-shell uses GTK3 while other desktops (Xfce, Lxde) use GTK2. LibreOffice also provides only GTK2 integration. This makes Yast2 to appear absolutely alien on a 12.1 desktop. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Ilya, YaST GTK frontened has been started as an open-source and free/community project by Michael Meeks and it's currently maintained by Ricardo Cruz. YaST team will gladly use your or anyone else's port to GTK3.

I already did the port to Gtk3 and Ricardo did all the remaining work (fixing crashes and bugs due to my Gtk inexperience). Michael Meeks even demoed YaST using the HTML5 backend: http://people.gnome.org/~michael/blog/2011-07-27.html Not sure if this branch was merged and submitted to Factory. -- Duncan Mac-Vicar P. - http://www.suse.com/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Not sure if this branch was merged and submitted to Factory. It is - and Ilya wouldn't be Ilya if he wouldn't propose this branch taking back because it doesn't look good on lxde.

Ok now I understand. You complain that yast2-gtk3 looks aline in a world full of gtk2 stuff, right? Sorry, but we have no resources to keep 2 branches of yast2-gtk(2). You are free to investigate how to make yast2-gtk3 use the theme gtk2 apps are using. -- Duncan Mac-Vicar P. - http://www.suse.com/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Don't you think there is some inconsistency that can negatively affect users' experience? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Is there anything known about LibreOffice GTK3 integration? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
