setuptools_scm is a standard and robust tool for dynamically getting version numbers from e.g. git; among its features is the ability to write the results to a python module that the application can then import from. This removes the overhead of large modules which introspect the dist-info to get the version, in favor of importing a frozen string.

Compatibility
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The Team is willing to see Guake available on every major Linux distribution. Do not hesitate to
|
|
contact us through GitHub Issue or directly by email (``gaetan [at] xeberon.net)`` if you see any
|
|
issue when packageing Guake.
|
|
|
|
The major compatibility issues we experience if with the different version of VTE. We try to
|
|
integrate new cool VTE features when they are ready, and protect them with test on the version
|
|
installed on the user's environment, but there may still be mistakes made, breaking the software
|
|
for a given environment. Do not hesitate to warn us for that!
