I think that we should have a release of settings-manager before sugar can depend on it. Also, are you going to maintain that module in sugar? Or as an external dependency?

comment:4 Changed 14 years ago by sayamindu

I can do a release immediately. Which makes more sense - as a submodule inside sugar, or as an external project.

What's the best way to proceed here? We got it reviewed and built in Fedora so far. So should we temporarily apply these two patches?

Replying to sdz:

If you really want, sure. But the reason why upstream Sugar is not depending on the settings-manager yet is because we don't have any UI yet for changing the font size, so it wouldn't bring us any benefit. But it may land in a later 0.88 minor release if a deployment asks strongly for it.

  • Bug Status changed from Unconfirmed to New
  • Milestone changed from Unspecified by Release Team to 0.90

I move this to 0.90. If a deployment cares strongly for this to be present, we can move it to 0.88.x. Please comment in this ticket, if.

After 3 years it seems we lost the train on this, also I have the feeling gtk is moving away from settings manager these days.
