What is Meld?
-------------

Meld is a visual diff and merge tool. It lets you compare two or three files,
and updates the comparisons while you edit them in-place. You can also compare
folders, launching comparisons of individual files as desired. Last but by no
means least, Meld lets you work with your current changes in a wide variety of
version control systems, including Git, Bazaar, Mercurial and Subversion.

Will there be a Windows MSI for this version?

Welcome to Vision Open

[JIA Pei]

My questions are:

1) Is current meld still python2 compatible, but python3 incompatible?
Particularly, for my case, I'm using Ubuntu 16.04.1, with python=3.5.2, and
I definitely installed libxml2, as well as itstool from Ubuntu repository.
When I tried
*sudo python setup.py install*
I obtained the following error messages:








*running build_help msgfmt help/sv/sv.po -o build/help/sv/sv.mo itstool -m
build/help/sv/sv.mo -o build/help/sv help/C/index.page Traceback (most
recent call last): File "/usr/bin/itstool", line 25, in <module> import
libxml2 ImportError: No module named 'libxml2' error: command 'itstool'
failed with exit status 1*


2) In addition, I search around Goole, and try to find your most-up-to-date
meld code, which I assume that the github code at
https://github.com/GNOME/meld should be even newer than your online
release, say:
https://download.gnome.org/sources/meld/3.16/meld-3.16.2.tar.xz .
So, which is newer? Your release
https://download.gnome.org/sources/meld/3.16/meld-3.16.2.tar.xz ? or the
github source https://github.com/GNOME/meld ??


Thank you ....

Meld 3.16.x is not and never will be Python 3 compatible. Please read
the emails on this list about Python 3 if you're so insistent on
Python 3 support.

A release will never be newer than whatever is in the git repo.
Releases are made from branches in the repository.

Right now, current git master will become Meld 3.17.0 and has initial
Python 3 support and no longer supports Python 2.

cheers,
Kai

Hi, Thank you Kai...
Quite clear answer...

But, when do you expect Meld 3.17.0 will be able to come out?

Thank you...
