I'm very disappointed : why haven't you talk to me before doing that ? I would have explained. I was about to ask for help for autotools... I'm working on a new feature and as my changelog entry suggested, this is a work in progress. pcre dependency would be optional. So unless gnome provides a decent Verson Control System (that would allow me to often commit my work (instead of doing big commits)), i'll continue to work this way. This CVS version was never meant to be released and i would have fixed it before releasing any 2.17.x. This is my development branch, it is often broken. Your revert just makes my little job harder : CVS sucks and it might be hard for me to re-revert. > - Propose pcre as a blessed dependency as per the instructions > listed at http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointSeventeen/ExternalDependencies > - Make the dependency on pcre optional > > Since pcre is used by external modules such as anjuta, gnucash, and > goffice, and is even proposed for usage in glib > (http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2006-October/msg00071.html), > I think the first of those two options should be relatively easy, > though usage of GRegex instead of pcre might be good to discuss as > well. GRegex would depend on pcre AFAIK. And this is exactly why i used pcre because i knew about GRegex. Btw, I wouldn't use GRegex because pcrecpp is just fine. GRegexmm anyone ? I'm not suggesting anything. But in my dream world, i would have : - gksu for password prompt (or gnomesu, which was rejected). - pcre for regular expression (why don't we have that already ?!) - sexy to treeview tooltips. And gtkmm of course. system-monitor already abuses g_module trying to load these cool libraries. And important features are disabled if these libraries are not found. I'm sad about what you did. -- GNOME http://www.gnomefr.org/ LibGTop http://directory.fsf.org/libgtop.html
