Hi.
I've just installed Glade and when I tried to open a GTK2 project I discovered that it is for the GTK3 version because it complains about obsolete widgets and it also says that it is only for GTK+ 3. However, the GTK2 version package is named glade3, hence my confussion. Is this intentionally or a mistake? That is probably intentional. http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Package_naming_guidelines#Multiple_packages_ for_the_same_software Granted, a more appropriate name would have been glade-3_8.
Hi.
Wouldn't it be less confusing to give the name glade2 to the GTK2 Glade package and simply glade to the GTK3 one? That is compliant with the naming guidelines and it's clearer to me. I don't understand where that "3" comes from.
First: Glade has it's on versioning. Second: Glade version is not equivialent to GTK version. Third: Yeah, it's a PITA. Here: Glade Version 3.8 (package glade3) is for GTK Version 2 IMHO either tack on a _gtk[2|3] (e.g glade3_gtk2) or make sure that the relevant GTK version is shown in the Package short description shown by "zypper se" and "yast2", better do both. As it is, it gives ground for unhappy programmers and users. Not so good for the image. - Yamaban.
