[cc'd to -devel in case anyone else was wondering :-] Hi
Yeah, the current packages in the distro are getting rather out of date. I've totally redone the packaging for them so I can now build packages easily from the wxWin cvs but probably wont upload them to the archive until wxWin2.2 is released (real soon now ;-) 2.1.14 has just been released, but is undergoing some fairly heated bugfixing.. really its just a release candidate for 2.2 which we hope to release sometime next month. There will only be a single source package, I've been tweaking the wxWin makefile system to allow me to build all the packages from a single source tree. There will be packages for wxGTK, wxPython (built with gtk) as well as packages of the manual and the samples etc. I'm currently working on packaging for the contrib libs (ogl, mmedia, the new stc lib, and the GLcanvas lib) and they should be ready in time for the 2.2 release as well.. Also there will be packages for wxBase (the non-gui parts of wxWin which can now be used separately). So yeah, I am actively working on them.. expect to see them hit the archives shortly after wxPython2.2 is officially released. (probably about a week after the main wxWin2.2 release date.) best, Ron On Mon, Mar 27, 2000 at 07:16:34PM +0200, André Dahlqvist wrote: > > Hi > > I heard from Ben, the previous maintainer of the wxwin-relates packages, > that you have taken over maintainership of these packages.
