Pango is a library for layout and rendering of text, with an emphasis on internationalization. Pango can be used anywhere that text layout is needed, though most of the work on Pango so far has been done in the context of the GTK+ widget toolkit. Pango forms the core of text and font handling for GTK+-2.x.

This is a stable release and is source and binary compatible with 1.14.x.

PyGTK 2.10.3

GNOME 3715 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

I am pleased to announce version 2.10.3 of the Python bindings for GTK.

The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org and its mirrors as soon as its synced correctly:

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygtk/2.10/

This is an unstable release and should be used with caution. It requires either GTK+ 2.8.x or GTK+ >= 2.10.

Blurb:

GTK is a toolkit for developing graphical applications that run on systems such as Linux, Windows and MacOS X. 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-2.10.3 3-october-2006
- Fix a crasher bug introduced in 2.10.2 (Gustavo)
- Make PyGTK work with Python 2.5 and 64-bit (#337368, Gustavo)
(when used in conjunction with the soon-to-be-released PyGObject 2.12.2)

PyGTK requires GTK+ >= 2.8.0 and Python >= 2.3.5 to build.

Bug reports, as always, should go to Bugzilla; check out
http://pygtk.org/developer.html and http://pygtk.org/feedback.html for links to posting and querying bug reports for PyGTK.

PyGObject 2.12.2

GNOME 3715 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

I am pleased to announce version 2.12.2 of the Python bindings for GObject.

The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org as and its mirrors as soon as its synced correctly:

http://download.gnome.org/sources/pygobject/2.12/

What's new since PyGObject 2.12.1:
- Make PyGObject 64-bit safe for Python 2.5 (Gustavo)
- All headers are now LGPL and not GPL (Johan)
- Remove a couple of GCC warnings (Gustavo)
- Revive distutils support (Cedric Gustin)
- Emission hook reference count bugfix (Gustavo)
- MSVC/ANSI C compilation fix (John Ehresman)
- Bump Ctrl-C timeout handler from 100ms to 1000ms (Johan)

Blurb:

GObject is a object system library used by GTK+ and GStreamer.

PyGObject provides a convenient wrapper for the GObject+ 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 PyGTK, PyORBit and gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.

Like the GObject library itself PyGObject 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 featured applications.

GDM2 2.16.1 (stable), the "Hyde Park" Release

GNOME 3715 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

The 2.16.1 release is a stable release of GDM with the following new features:

- Use g_markup_printf_escaped so gdmsetup better handles description strings that contains things similar to a tag like an email address. Fixes bug #357998. (Matthias Clasen)

- Fix gdmsetup so that the window manager close button works as the Close button in the dialog (Matthias Clasen)

- Fix for bug #352838, avoid crashing by moving call to get GDM_KEY_SYSTEM_MENU until after authentication check. (Frederic Crozat)

- Add g_type_init() to gdmflexiserver since this is needed for -a (authentication) code to work.

- Translation updates (Rahul Bhalerao, Runa Bhattacharjee, Alessio Frusciante, Priit Laes, David Lodge, \303\205smund Skj\303\246veland)

Note: GDM2 was originally written by Martin K. Petersen <mkp@mkp.net>. Much work has been done on GDM2 by George Lebl, and Brian Cameron currently shares maintainership duties with the Queen of England.

Note2: If installing from the tarball do note that make install overwrites most of the setup files, all except gdm.conf. It will however save backups with the .orig extension first.

#ifndef GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
Note3: Note3 has been depracated ...
#endif /* GDM_DISABLE_DEPRECATED */
