Hi guys,
For a couple of months now, f-spot had some strange and unusual build
dependencies. This was known and supposed to be automagically solved as
time pass and upstream projects releases their stuffs... But as the
situation was lasting longer than expected and some stuffs are still
preventing upstream gtk# to provide a new release that works not only on
brand new systems, we stepped the f-spot dependencies back to something
reliable and stable, aka gtk# 2.12 and mono 2.0.
For everyone out there, and for every packager, this means you could
more than probably just grab the sources, build it and be fine (if the
0.5.x releases were working for you) on almost every not-to-ancient
distro.
There wasn't any feature cut to achieve this, but the parts of gtk# svn
we were relying on were moved in Gio# and Gtk#Beans, which we are
bundling.
This prevented a lot of users to test the svn version, and a lot of
contributors to provide patches. I hope this will change the situation.
Best
Stephane
