[Glade-devel] please help: bug: glade2 file conversion to glade3 failed

[Tristan Van Berkom]

Hello.

Glade does not come with any conversion script.

Just make sure you have the gnome plugin for Glade installed
on your system and then try to load the file directly in Glade.

>From there, you will probably want to use GtkBuilder, for
that you will first have to figure out how to eliminate the
deprecated libgnomeui widgets from your project, then
convert the project format in the preferences.

Cheers,
        -Tristan
