Re: [gnome-db] Fwd: gbase64 dependency?

["Daniel Espinosa" <esodan gmail com>]

What about to use a #ifdef / #endif, that put out the code in gbase64.c/h file if the user has a GLib 2.12. Or even consider not to use the gnome-db-entry-pict.c at present time, but allows to compile if 2.12 is present? Is realy necesary that plugin?

I manually added gbase64.[ch] copied from glib 2.12 because I did not
want to set a dependency on that version now, but I forgot to add them
to CVS. I realize now that I'll also have to change the function
names.

For now here they are attached (I've slightly modified them to remobe
further dependencies).
