Re: [gnome-db] New gnome_db widget

[Philippe CHARLIER <p charlier chello be>]

Hi,

For the moment my distribution does not include the version 2.4 of Gtk.
So, I am unable to use the new combo box widget ... and I do not want to
take the risk to ruin my installation by trying to compile the new
version of Gtk.

I will try to come back on this item later.

Phil
