Joonas, Patrick, have you tried these new Anjuta packages? They appear to work
for me.

To me, Anjuta seems to work fine now, in both Fedora 8 and Rawhide. Thanks for
fixing it :-)

Project creation works but a default gtk project fails to build:

(In reply to comment #9)

The first half refers to a Gtk project in C, while the second half refers to a
Gtkmm project in C++. In any case the default Gtk project did build smoothly for me.

Did you install Anjuta and its dependencies from the Fedora packages? If yes,
which versions are you using? (rpm -qa | grep anjuta)

Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Patrick, ping?

Ok I'm here.  I'm running rawhide.  Should I install anjuta and try the default Gtk project with that?  

I see that I tried to build a gtkmm project.  Shouldn't all default project build (I'm assuming that was a generated gtkmm project, I remember nothing)?

You need to have the relevant Gtk+ libraries and headers if you are planning to use the Gtk+ project. Same goes for Gtkmm, Vala, etc..

If we decide to add the -devel packages of all these different projects supported by Anjuta, it will guarantee that they will always work, but we will end up with a bloated dependency chain. eg., anyone who wants to use Anjuta to work on a simple C or C++ project will be burdened with the entire developement stack of Gtk+, Gtkmm, Vala, etc. which is not really desirable.

Right now, I am thinking whether we should work on a solution similar to what was devised for Totem's Gstreamer plugins using PackageKit. The workflow will be something like this: user selects a new project to be created and depending on which kind of project he chose, the programs check whether the needed libraries and headers are available or not. If they are not present, a dialog will be shown, promptimg him to install the necessary packages, and if the user agrees PackageKit will be invoked to carry out the necessary installations automatically.

What do you think?

That's better than what I was thinking.  I was thinking that, at a minimum, the developer should get instructions for what needs to be installed when they try to create a project that doesn't have the required packages installed.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
