Hi all! So, we finally made the first step and merge our new symbol-database plugin into trunk. It's still very alpha but it is getting better every day. Anyway, our old plugin used to have plain files to store the symbol information in some weird format using binary sorting. For the new plugin, we decided to use a database instead, in particular sqlite. As we wanted to do things in a GObject way, we choose the libgda wrapper library. libgda embeds sqlite if not available from the system, so there is no explicit sqlite dependency. For now, this is just an optional dependency but when it is more stable, it's likely that we will remove the old symbol-browser and make the new plugin the default. However, we either need libgda-4.0 as external dependency or as Desktop module for GNOME 2.24. Opinions? Thanks, Johannes
