When run autogen.sh in sample_apps project, error info popup that clutter-0.9 can't be found. Actually, moblin has used clutter-1.0 for quite a long time. When modify clutter-0.9 to clutter-1.0 in configure.ac, build succeed, and the sample app works fine in Moblin.
Bob, NOT sure you are right owner for it.
Wouldn't it make more sense to remove the whole project (most apps were already removed in the beginning of the year), or does it still fulfill some role? Quoth the README: The applications provided in this project are filler applications so that the application launcher will have something to launch until real applications are built. They also may be useful for verifying that a given platform supports rendering OpenGL-based applications within a compositing window manager.
Mailing list show community people would like refer to the sample app to start their first clutter try.
(In reply to comment #3) > Mailing list show community people would like refer to the sample app to start > their first clutter try. Of course samples are needed, but new-comers don't really know where to look: we need to point to the _right_ direction. The question is: should we point these people to clutter source (with lots of tests), a real world clutter app (something a bit less complex than hornsey would be nice) or a separate sample app that exists only for that sake? If the sample app is considered important _and_ is kept up-to-date (maybe it is and this was just a fluke) then let's keep it. Otherwise keeping it available will just hurt us just like it now has: people try the sample app and it does not work.
