#41649: vte 0.34 dropped python support -----------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: jean-daniel.pauget@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: vte, terminator | -----------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by devans@…): The solution in general is for applications that require vte to update to the latest vte API vte-2.90. Note in particular that the python bindings along with GTK+ 2.0 support were dropped by the upstream developers in vte version 0.29. The current recommended approach for applications that desire to use vte via Python would be to use gobject-introspection and py- gobject3. As far as I can tell, terminator is the only MacPorts port that requires the old vte Python bindings. Other ports that are currently broken due to reliance on outdated vte versions are: * gnome-mud (wants vte >= 0.11.00) * mlview (wants vte >= 0.11.12) * Terminal (dependency exo build fails due to outdated libnotify API issue, Terminal wants vte >= 0.17.1) Current stable vte API version is vte-2.90 >= 0.34.9 (with release of GNOME 3.12.0 on 3/26/2014, stable version will advance to 0.36.0). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/41649#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
