Today’s work!

Maemo

I set up a maemo environment on my ubuntu box today. It was quite easy as they provide a good documentation and an easy installation script. There are some things that do not work perfectly yet but I think they can be fixed.

Glom

Currently trying to set up glom put I have problems to connect to the database. Seems like libgda got installed without support for postgresql but I am not sure yet. Retrying with jhbuild now…

gnome-build

No volunteers for gnome-build, yet! Applied patch from Günther Brammer (thanks!) to fix a parsing bug with “+=”.

Bug #343012

For my new employer Openismus, which is the first time that I get paid for anything Gnome or open-source related, I tried to fix Bug 343012 today. The patch itself was quite simple but it was a bit difficult to find out. I had no other testcase as the provided because I am not really familiar with the gtkrc system. Please try this patch out and tell me if there are any side-effects.

Going to have my last exam for this month at 3 pm…

Multi-project support in Anjuta

p>While I should be learning for electrical engineering and semi-conductors I spent quite some work on improving Anjuta.Most significant is the long-standing issue that people want to be able to open more project at the same time like in Eclipse.

So I arrived to the conclusion that this is not impossible and hacked it in about 3 hours. The solution has some rough edges yet but it works.

To comment Benjamin’s last post: I am now a proud member of the Gnome Foundation!
