Re: [Nautilus-list] gdk_color_parse () compatibility function

[David Emory Watson <dwatson cs ucr edu>]

I am working on this issue.  Can you suggest a good place to put this
compatibility function?  FYI, currently gdk_color_parse is called from:

./libnautilus-private/nautilus-directory-background.c
./src/nautilus-property-browser.c
./src/nautilus-sidebar-tabs.c
./libbackground/preferences.c
