Gparted 0.6.0

I already compiled parted 2.2-5.fc14, see previous blog post.

Gparted 0.6.0 is now compiled, for Quirky and Wary. One important feature is that it supports new drives that have over 512 bytes per sector. See Gparted News page:

Some notes for developers. I compiled Gparted statically with the gtkmm libs -- I just grabbed these from the puppy-4 repo at ibiblio.org:

cairomm_DEV-1.4.4-pup4 glibmm_DEV-2.20.0 gtkmm_DEV-2.16.0 libgnomecanvasmm_DEV-2.20.0-pup4 pangomm_DEV-2.24.0

...these just have the .a static libs.

And the configuration:

# ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --build=i486-t2-linux-gnu --disable-doc --disable-scrollkeeper
