@wikiwide :
1.,2. : will check them

3. : the text or the icons can be disabled easily.And the gap is bound to remain (i think so ) because it has to be filled with other options/icons which can be added to the toolbar. but, i will still look for it.

4. I seriously have no idea about it sorry if you know, please take a look or please link a tutorial over here to make the app go portrait.

5. Sure i will. ( the deb with you is not hildonised, just pure GTK. )

this is the ii-7 irc client.. i have nt tested it yet.. i just managed to compile it. if anyone interested, please test it.

gtk 2.18 is compileable with glib 2.22. if anyone is free , please try it.
when i compiled it, ( ie make ) it didnot give any errors, but make install broke my scrachbox.
i have not tried to build the deb.

steps :
1. get gtk 2.18 source
2. get hildon-gtk source ( google it )
3. dh_make the gtk
4. copy relevant parts from debian/control of hildon-gtk to debian/control of gtk
5. build-package;

o/p : lots of debs.

( compiled gtk 2.14.7 this way only, but not yet tested )

this is the python client for tmo ( not really a client, more like apis, a client can be built on it ), i was working on.
Since i wont be free for a month, so putting it here, if anyone wants to take up the development . ( i dont jnow whether some client for tmo existed or not )

req : python2.5, beautifulsoup3, mechanize

change to .py

HELP :
installing gtk 2.18.1 ( from deb) gives a lots of errors.

apt-cache policy gives :

candidate 2:2.14.7
installed 2.18.1


Someone can please post debian/control for the gtk??

Do you mean "libgtk2.0-0"?.. debian/control should be, theoretically, in source code package. Where is the source code for the package? I can find the binary packages here:
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/fre...e/g/gtk%2b2.0/
And theoretically, it should have contained libgtk*.tar.gz files with source code.
In reality, I do not see them. Why?

Still, if you are looking for gtk+2.0_2.14.7-1maemo33+0m5.tar.gz, it is here.

Thank you. Best wishes. Apologies for not replying earlier.

@wikiwide : Not that one. http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gtk+/2.14/

i took this one ( from the link ) ( and 2.18.0 from there only ) and debian/control from the package you mentioned. And then compiled it. ( with glib 2.22 installed and deleting all the things having "doc" in debian/control line gtk-doc...something something)

It compiled successfully but installation seems to break things.

Just an idea :
why not simply patch the things ( functions added in later version & removed in previous version ) from 2.13 - 2.18 to 2.14.7-maemo( the one you mentioned ) and recompile it.

Gtk 2.18.0 has dependency on glib 2.22, so i think versions before that should not have any extra dependency that could not be full filled by things already repo.

hey just checked : google-cl is compatible with scratchbox ( so should be with n900 ). So if anyone could make a gui based client on it , it will be awsome
