This page includes repo details and how to get sugar-jhbuild set up with the GTK3 work.

Repos

http://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-toolkit-gtk3 - branch 'master': this is the GTK3 port of sugar-toolkit
http://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-toolkit - branch 'master': the GTK2 version of sugar-toolkit needs a handful of structure changes prompted by our GTK3 work. They have been committed here.
http://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar - branch 'master': we are not (yet) porting the sugar shell to GTK3, but a handful of structural changes were needed.
http://git.sugarlabs.org/sugar-artwork - branch 'master': mainline sugar-artwork repo containing the new theme work (folder gtk3)
http://git.sugarlabs.org/browse - branch 'master': Browse port to GTK3
http://git.sugarlabs.org/read - branch 'master': Read port to GTK3
http://git.sugarlabs.org/hello-world - branch 'master': hello-world ported to GTK3
http://git.sugarlabs.org/~walter/abacus/abacus-gtk3 - branch 'abacus-gtk3': Abacus ported to GTK3 and to use cairo for drawing

jhbuild setup

All the changes have been landed in the master branches. Make sure you have the sugar-toolkit-gtk3 repository checked out and installed. There has been a fix in pygobject. Either compile/install the master branch or in F16 you can install as well the recent pygobject3 release.

Pending work

shortcuts in palettes: button tooltips should show the shortcut, if any, next to the tip. Like in the Stop button, "Stop Ctrl+Q"
title in menus (e.g. 'Back' in the Browse back button palette)

sugar-toolkit-gtk3

take screenshot: the code has to be ported to cairo, see _get_screenshot in Browse as an example
toolbars: finish the sub-toolbar look-alike like in gtk2
finish porting the 'do_expose_event' calls to 'do_draw' calls

sugar-artwork

deprectate icon-slicer
finish the theme

Pending upstream work

All of these have been worked around (or will be worked around) for now, at the sugar level.

gobject introspection bindings for librsvg: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663049 Solved: fix has been pushed to librsvg master in http://git.gnome.org/browse/librsvg/, is in 2.35.0

enable GDK introspection access to X11 window properties: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663261. current workaround patch in sugar-toolkit (Raul)
extend gio mime type API so that we can drop our xdgmime copy (e.g. need to be able to get default file extension for a given mime type)
chaining up in vfuncs: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662994 Solved: fix has been pushed to pygobject master http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/commit/?id=2fd3aa9d4ca0906a5e609845ee500ba72e358f94
implementing GtkContainer::forall: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644926, also needs https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663052
missing parts in pango introspection, 646788 does contain what we need (there are quite a few introspection related pango bugs open atm, from a quick look I found https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660070, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627973, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645792, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645871, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646788 even with patches attached already for a while)

 == jhbuild setup ==
-Start with a working "normal" sugar-jhbuild installation.
+All the changes have been landed in the master branches. Make sure you have the sugar-toolkit-gtk3 repository checked out and installed. There has been a fix in pygobject. Either compile/install the master branch or in F16 you can install as well the [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=279522 recent pygobject3] release.
-Compile/install a fixed pygobject with [https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=662994 this chain-up fix]. F16 build available from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3473257
+== Pending work ==
-Apply this patch to sugar-jhbuild: http://dev.laptop.org/~dsd/20111029/sugar-jhbuild-sugar-toolkit-gtk3.patch and build the new GTK3 based sugar toolkit:
+* shortcuts in palettes: button tooltips should show the shortcut, if any, next to the tip.  Like in the Stop button, "Stop Ctrl+Q"
+* title in menus (e.g. 'Back' in the Browse back button palette)
-<pre>
+===sugar-toolkit-gtk3===
-./sugar-jhbuild build sugar-toolkit-gtk3
+* take screenshot: the code has to be ported to cairo, see [http://git.sugarlabs.org/browse/mainline/blobs/master/webactivity.py#line541 _get_screenshot in Browse] as an example
-</pre>
+* toolbars: finish the sub-toolbar look-alike like in gtk2
+* finish porting the 'do_expose_event' calls to 'do_draw' calls
-The sugar-toolkit gtk2 version needs some modifications for some restructuring that gtk3 work has prompted. Check out our branch where this happens;
+===sugar-artwork===
+* [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/3143 deprectate icon-slicer]
-<pre>
+* finish [[Features/GTK3/Theme|the theme]]
-cd source/sugar-toolkit
-git remote add -f gtk2-mods-for-gtk3 git://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar-toolkit/sugar-toolkit-gtk3.git
-git checkout -b gtk2-mods-for-gtk3 gtk2-mods-for-gtk3/sucrose-0.94
-make install
-cd ../..
-</pre>
-And similarly for sugar:
-<pre>
-cd source/sugar
-git remote add -f erikos-gtk3 git://git.sugarlabs.org/~erikos/sugar/sugar-gtk3.git
-git checkout -b gtk3 erikos-gtk3/master
-make install
-cd ../..
-</pre>
-Select gtk3 brach of sugar-artwork for the new theme:
-<pre>
-cd source/sugar-artwork
-git pull
-git checkout gtk3
-make install
-cd ../..
-</pre>
