Subsurface and gtk 3.0

  Hi all,

I just got a new dive computer that is now supported by
libdivecomputer&Subsurface, so I wanted to install 3.1.1

I'm running on a gtk3-enabled system (openSUSE 12.3), so also osm-gps-map is
linked against it and I need to compile Subsurface with it, too.

After some googling I found Linus' post with the patch and figured out things
are in place, except for the Makefile.  I changed it, and almost everything
compiles - except, gtk-gui.c has one reference to GTK_OBJECT left.  The
proper(?) code was in Linus' patch, but not marked as a change.  Here's my
diff:

--- gtk-gui.c.orig      2013-06-30 17:47:46.000000000 +0100
+++ gtk-gui.c   2013-09-30 13:12:25.855013190 +0100

 #endif
-       g_object_set(GTK_OBJECT(dialog),
+       gtk_show_about_dialog(NULL,
                "title", _("About Subsurface"),
                "program-name", "Subsurface",
                "comments", _("Multi-platform divelog software in C"),

With that, it compiles&runs fine.  

I know the switch to QT is underway - but maybe someone finds this
nevertheless helpfull :)

Cheers,

  Pit
