Re: glibmm-2.16.1.tar.bz2

Yes, I know, I never had this problem using Linux; that is the reason
why I made a point of mentioning MSWinXP as often as possible.
Could this be one of the problems to be resolved?

I'll
be frank with you Murray, after the last message from Cedric and being
a Gtkmm user for so long, I feel guilty for never doing anything to
return the favor, pardon me... the MANY favor that I have received from
this community. I am now talking to my boss about jumping in the Gtkmm
wagon and do something to repay the community that has helped this
business and myself so much.

Going back to the issue at hand, I would like to hear from the
other Win32 Gtkmm user, and abuser, to check it out for me. If this is
an issue of OS incompatibility than we have to address it and correct
it, however, if it is a problem at my end we can work it out as well.


Thanks MSWin32 Gtkmm user, and specially you Murray for your
prompt response, I know that many of you will do everything in your
power to get this matter resolved A.S.A.P.

I can open the file with file-roller in Ubuntu.

Have you tried that .tar.gz file?
