Re: Fedora Update + GtkBuilder request

["Eric Work" <work eric gmail com>]

Alexey,

The gtk 2.x package in fedora rawhide is gtk2-2.14.0-3.fc10.i386.rpm.
I initially didn't notice any problems because fedora 9 has version
gtk2-2.12.11-1.fc9.i386.rpm, but it didn't built against gtk 2.x in
rawhide.  I checked GNOME CVS (since I figured rawhide should be
bleeding edge) to see what was going on, and via the changelogs
GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC has been deprecated.  Since 2.0 the preferred macro is
G_CALLBACK which is used everywhere within the gtkdatabox library
itself, just not some examples.  So that's the history behind the
patch.  If Dr. Roland releases the next version with this patch
applied this should no longer be an issue :-)
