[Glade-devel] Where is the glade repository to be found ?

[philippe.bertin at telenet.be (Philippe Bertin)]

Hello all,

I posted this message below, yesterday (on other gtk related group), and 
was hinted into the direction of this newsgroup. My problem was to find 
glade-catalog.dtd as refered to by 
http://glade.gnome.org/docs/catalogintro.html.

Tristan indicated to try my luck here, and pointed me into the direction 
of the glade 'repository'. My follow-on question is : where can I find 
the glade3 CVS repository (I think that Tristan meant the *CVS* 
repository) ? I do not find a link on the homepage, apart from tarballs. 
But the file is not in there ! Google doesn't help me much neither...

Another question related to it is that I don't have any online help in 
my glade installation itself (rpm packaged by SuSE). So I consider 
installing a more recent version. But if I do, how can I be sure that my 
existing plugin (Ada code generation plugin, which I would hate to lose) 
won't disappear ? Of if it does, how can I find it back and install/copy 
it to it's new place ? As far as I understand from the glade 
documentation on the glade site, the plugin is 'only' a catalog file and 
a plugin library. But where are they so that I can eventually reinstall 
them in the correct location (or: how can I find out where they are 
located now) ?

Kind regards,

PhB
