Re: Able to build 0.3.5 release src, unable to build SVN src

[Stephane Delcroix <stephane delcroix org>]

Hi Richard,

f-spot is still using glade-2. and badly...

So, if you want to modify the f-spot.glade file, here's the required
steps...

1) get a fresh f-spot.glade from svn
2) open it with glade-2, don't edit anything, save the file
3) svn diff f-spot.glade > fspotsuckswithgladefile (or any other
name...)
4) open the f-spot.glade with glade-2, do what you have to...
5) patch -p0 -R < fspotsuckswithgladefile

and compile...

"the power of ml archive" had the answer for weeks ;);)

regards

s
