*** Changes

 

2.51.1:

 

This is the first release of the glibmm-2.52 API/ABI.

It installs in parallel with the gtkmm-2.4 API/ABI, of which

the most recent version is glibmm 2.50. We know that is a bit

confusing. We are taking the opportunity to do this glibmm ABI

break while GTK+ (and therefore gtkmm) is also doing an ABI

break. But we cannot call this glibmm-3.0 because there is no

glib 3.0.

 

Build:

* Require C++14.

  (Murray Cumming)

* Use libsigc++-3.0 instead of libsigc++-2.0.
