• Haiku gets GIMP, Inkscape

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Tue Feb 15 03:55:17 2022
    Haiku';s latest activity report is here, and while there';s a lot of stuff in there - as usual - I think the Gtk work stands out this month.

    After all that work, GTK3 worked "well enough" that it seemed ready for general consumption (or at least testing), so waddlesplash committed the necessary changes to HaikuPorts for Xlibe to be packaged, and then GTK3, and then finally the first GTK3
    application: Inkscape. Already, GIMP has followed closely on its tail thanks to 3dEyes (with some quick fixes to Xlibe done by waddlesplash for it), and more GTK3 applications are sure to follow once the HaikuPorts team gets caught up to speed on things.
    You can find screenshots on the forums of both GIMP and Inkscape running on Haiku. With that, waddlesplash has deemed the "GTK3 porting adventure" complete, and has returned to development work on Haiku's core for this coming month.

    That';s a lot of progress, and two great applications to have running on Haiku.
