#17012: Request newer build of abiword ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: mike@flyn.org | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | Port: ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ A Mac OS X native version of Abiword has not been released since 2.4.5. However, GTK now has a quartz backend that does not require X11. I'd like to propose that the abiword package be updated to 2.6 and the Mac OS X native version be abandoned. People who want to avoid X11 can build the GTK version against GTK/Quartz. There are a few issues in the abiword codebase that are keeping me from building abiword 2.6 against GTK/Quartz.
