Yep. I do love GNOME. I see GTK as a part of the complete GNOME platform. However I do know that most of guile-gtk does not want to have GNOME installed. What I'm planning to do? In the future we will have 3 packages: -guile-gobject: The basis for all bindings. It is a wrapper for glib and thus for the new gobject. -guile-gtk2: Gtk+2 bindings for guile (maybe pango can come hear...) -gnome-guile2: The complete GNOME platform bindings for guile. It will contatin support for bonobo, corba, gtk+2, etc. Following this scheme, you have to choose between guile-gtk2 or gnome-guile2. If you chose the latter it will include the guile-gtk2 package. I think this is the way to go =) Any suggestions. Hope this clarifies the situation =) ariel
