Indeed.
Using XML to specify, in an awk-like manner, that some configuration
setting should be changed. How criminally indirect can you get.
I never liked Glib, GDK, GTK+ or Gnome, for their thorougly un-unixy,
DLL-happy, Corba-loving bloat with weird cross-platform aspirations, and
stuff like this doesn't help.
It's a pity I can't live (work) without GNUCash, otherwise I'd love to
purge libgnorbagtk0, gnome-bin, gnome-libs-data, libgnorba27,
libgnome32, libgnomesupport0, libgnomeui3, libgtkhtml20,
libgnomeprint15, libglade-gnome, bonobo, libgdk-pixbuf,
libgnomeprint-bin, libguppi16, libbonobo2, libgnomeprint-data from my
system.
Cheers,
Emile.
