I also sent 'patch' to the cabal file which is not deploying pkgconfig without any reply. In any case, it looks your package is the way to go for Haskell & Clutter. (I like you use c2hs so I might learn something 'cause I need to bind some C lib as well.) Do you have some public repo for the project's code?

Hi, I work with Trevor on the other Clutter binding. We did exchange a few messages with Matt, but we were not sure how to combine the two libraries because our approaches to writing the binding were a bit different. In general, I don't think that having two similar libraries is a huge problem. I tend to do this kind of hacking for fun, and I really do not enjoy the competition that is being encouraged when we try to select "the one true library" (e.g., with efforts such as the Haskell platform). Let a thousand flowers bloom, I say :-) -Iavor On Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 7:12 PM, Matt Arsenault wrote:

I thought I mentioned this somewhere, but I've been using this git repo:

I do not object of having choice - that's why I like Linux, but, otoh, prefer to have one fully-baked lib than several half-baked solutions which was/is problem with some Haskell packages.

We are baking ;)

btw, are you interested in binding nbtk/mx toolkit for Moblin which is based on Clutter?

I am not that familiar with it, but it might be interesting to have some Clutter based widgets for GUIs. -Iavor
