[Glade-users] Glade UI in French?

[Pascal]

Hello Tristan,

I’ve followed usual instructions : configure, make, make install.
But answering your question, I've just realized that I built an old version now of Glade: 3.10.2
Because my version of GTK+ is also quite old: 3.4.1 and intltool 0.41.1.

Maybe it’s the explanation or a part of the explanation.

I hope I will be able to install soon a newer version of GTK+ but it’s not a piece of cake on MacOS.

Thanks, Pascal.
