GTK 3 Port
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
Early 2018, Guake has been ported GTK3, thanks to the huge work of @aichingm.
|
|
Old releases and code depending on GTK2 have been put on the
|
|
`0.8.x <https://github.com/Guake/guake/tree/0.8.x>`_ branch
|
|
of the GitHub project and will no more be actively maintained.
|
|
|
|
Please note that we target to support mainly the GTK and VTE versions found
|
|
by default on most popular distribution such as Ubuntu or Arch Linux
|
|
(currently: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 17.10).
|
|
|
|
Guake is now only compatible with Python 3.5+.
|
|
|
|
Port to GTK 3 and Python 3 lead naturally to skip all 1.x and 2.x version in the
|
|
version of Guake: Guake 3.
|
|
|
|
Dropped Features from Guake 0.8.x
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- ``--bgimg`` (this option has been removed from vte)
|
|
|
|
Broken translations
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Some changes in translation system made during the Guake 3 port may have broken the welcome message
|
|
in some languages (#1209).
|
|
|
|
Help is welcomed for updating translations in your language ! See the "Update translation" section
|
|
bellow.
|
|
|
|
Note for maintainers
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Guake has drastically changed its build system with Guake 3. You may need to adapt all the
|
|
integration scripts accordingly.
|
|
|
|
Guake now uses ``Pipfile`` to store it Python dependencies (except the system dependencies such as
|
|
PyGTK3). It is maintained and used by `pipenv` CLI tool. It is a system more advanced than using
|
|
``requirements.txt``, but this file is still generated for backward compatibility (for example:
|
|
ReadTheDocs only support ``requirements.txt`` for the moment), by a tool I've developed, named
|
|
``pipenv_to_requirements`` (makefile target ``make requirements``).
|
|
It does generate ``requirements.txt`` (running dependencies), and ``requirements-dev.txt`` (build,
|
|
checks and test only). From then, Guake is now a classic, canon Python package (with setup.py,
|
|
building distrubution packages, ...).
|
|
|
|
It however requires system libraries, so cannot work isolated inside a virtualenv. If you look
|
|
closer to the virtualenv used with ``make dev ; make run``, you will see it is configured to use
|
|
the system libraries using ``pew toggleglobalsitepackages``.
|
|
|
|
If for any reason ``pipenv`` does not work on your platform, you can still install guake from these
|
|
requirements file, but the ultimate source of truth for dependency declaration is the ``Pipfile``.
