Up to now, I used Gazpacho with maemo-sdk-rootstrap_3.0_i386.tgz as rootstrap and http://repository.maemo.org/ mistral free non-free as repository. Then, I installed gazpacho gazpacho-loader gazpacho-hildon maemo-launcher libgtk2.0-dev libgtk2.0-0 xserver-xephyr python2.4-xml and all the related dependencies... Is it correct or I may have newer versions using a different repository/rootstrap ?

That's the idea but unfortunately it is not working yet for some cases. The problem is libglade does not support non Widget objects. There are some patches to fix this and we are all waiting for libglade maintainer to apply them." ? This was the sentence that made me to try to come back to Glade... > > >> Why Maemo does not provide both choices ? > > The adventages of using gazpacho is that custom widgets support is > easier (for widgets written in C with bindings and directly for widgets > written in python).
