We would probably want to have both available to avoid breaking existing projects using the gtksourceview3 binding.
Ok, do you have any idea which projects are using gtksourceview for D?
The only thing using gtk-d in Debian is tilix (but I understand Debian isn't everything). tilix only uses gtkd and vted.
I think the changes are small enough, so we can update to gtksourceview4.
Why does paths.d
use the old library name?
Probably because that file isn't generated from gir files, the one you want to use can be found here:
https://github.com/gtkd-developers/GtkD/blob/master/generated/sourceview/gsv/c/functions.d#L31
I'll update the one in paths.d
gtksourceview now offers version 4. It is still for gtk3. I expect a future gtk4 version will be named gtksourceview5.
The only part of core GNOME yet to switch to gtksourceview4 is sushi (as of the development 3.31 series).
It would be nice if gtk-d could switch to gtksourceview4 too.
