The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org as and its mirrors as soon as its synced correctly:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygtk/2.6/pygtk-2.6.0.tar.gz
Major changes:
Gtk+ 2.6 API, new classes: GtkAboutDialog, GtkIconView, GtkCellView, GtkFileChooserButton.
GInterfaces can now be implemented.
Overriding GTK+ virtual methods is now supported.
Better support for GMainloop support, so you don't need to run gtk.main to be able to use signals and gobjects.
Deprecated gtk.TRUE,gtk.FALSE, gtk.idle_add, gtk.idle_remove, gtk.timeout_add, gtk.timeout_remove, gtk.input_add, gtk.input_add_full, gtk.input_remove
Thanks to (this release would not have been possible without you!):
Hans Breuer, Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro, Raphael Kubo da Costa, John Ehresman, John Finlay, Cedric Gustin, James Henstridge, Adam Hooper, Alan Horkan, Mark McLoughlin, Christian Robottom Reis, Manish Singh and Gian Mario Tagliaretti
What's new since 2.5.4:
- win32 fixes (Cedric Gustin)
- remove unnecessary casting (Manish Singh)
- updated examples (Johan)
Blurb:
GTK is a toolkit for developing graphical applications that run on POSIX systems such as Linux, Windows and MacOS X (provided that the X server for MacOS X has been installed). It provides a comprehensive set of GUI widgets, can display Unicode bidi text. It links into the Gnome Accessibility Framework through the ATK library.
PyGTK provides a convenient wrapper for the GTK+ library for use in Python programs, and takes care of many of the boring details such as managing memory and type casting. When combined with PyORBit and gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.
Like the GTK+ library itself PyGTK is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications. It is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose scripts up to large full features applications.
PyGTK requires GTK+ gt;= 2.6 and Python gt;= 2.3 to build.
Bug reports, as always, should go to Bugzilla; check out http://pygtk.org/developer.html and http://pygtk.org/feedback.html for
