A not about GtkBuilder conversion



I was looking why some buttons where not respecting the button-images
setting yesterday (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588732)
when I noticed something that concerned me.

The module I was looking at had been converted from using glade to
GtkBuilder. But it is still shipping glade files as its primary source
and runs gtk-builder-convert at build time to create .ui files from
them.

This is not how things are supposed to be done ! gtk-builder-convert
is not something you should or can rely on as a build tool. It is
purely a one-time conversion help, with the assumption that the
generated .ui files are manually checked and used as the primary
source afterwards.

Please keep that in mind when doing GtkBuilder conversions.
