Please update glabels to latest version (2.2.3)

[Wouter Stomp]

Binary package hint: glabels

Please update to the latest version.

Changelog:

After two years in the making, it's finally here...

A new stable release. The underlying technology has been largely overhauled from the 2.0.x branch. The libgnomeprint library has been completely replaced with Cairo and the new GtkPrintOperation API. One side effect of print rendering with Cairo is that image compositing now works at full resolution. Cairo has also replaced GnomeCanvas in the main display and drawing interface. Many other deprecated dependencies have been replaced as well. Because of this, this version requires at least Gnome 2.16.

Changes/fixes since 2.0.4 include

    * Migrated from EggRecent to GtkRecentManager
    * Migrated from libgnomeprint to GtkPrintOperation and Cairo.
    * Migrated from libgnomeprint to Pango for text layout.
    * Migrated GnomeDruid to GtkAssistant for template designer.
    * Migrated from GnomeCanvas to Cairo.
    * Removed all deprecated widgets as of Gnome-2.16/Gtk-2.10.
    * Added categorization of templates and an updated New Label dialog.
    * New label dialog now allows selection of recently used templates
    * Removed splash screen.
    * Added initial support for datamatrix 2D barcodes.
    * Added support for Brazilian CEPNet barcodes.
    * Added shadow attribute to label objects.
    * New merge backend for evolution data server
    * Various bug fixes.
    * New templates.

When (or if) Debian has packaged glabels 2.2.0, don't forget to request a sync so that it enters Hardy (maybe it will be too late, though).

[Fabián Rodríguez (magicfab)]

Version is now 2.2.1

[Krešo Kunjas (deresh)]

what is the status of this?

will it make into hardy?

[Milan Bouchet-Valat (nalimilan)]

It won't. It looks like in Debian there's not much interest about it: it's still 2.1.3 there. What you can hope is at most a backport when (if) Debian packages 2.2.1. Maybe contacting them could help, they may have forgotten it. ;-)

[Ken Phillis Jr (kphillisjr)]

Yea, and it seems Glabels 2.2.2 is now out, and it appears that getdeb has a ubuntu release for 2.2.1 out already, located here:
