0.10.0 (gtk4 and GNOME Files 43)

This is a fully updated version to gtk4 and the new plugin interface of GNOME Files 43.

This version is meant to be used with GNOME Files 43 (and later) and it will not work with any earlier version.

Note that the plugin support in GNOME Files 43 has been simplified, so edition is not possible inside GNOME Files' Properties dialog. Visualisation support has been implemented in GNOME Files. To edit ACLs or Extended Attributes, use the contextual menu over a file or directory in the files view of GNOME Files, this will start Eiciel in edit mode for that file directly.

Changes from 0.10.0-rc2

• Several improvements in the build system. GNOME Files support is optional.

Notes for packagers

• This has been tested against GNOME Files 43.rc1 (built from source) and 43.beta (Fedora Rawhide at the time of writing this)
• The build system has been fully migrated to meson. Autotools are not an option anymore.
• Only gtk4 is supported. gtk3 (or gtk2) is not supported from now on. The gtk3 branch is to be used for gtk3 or GNOME Files <43 environments.
• The id / app-id has been normalised from org.roger-ferrer.Eiciel to org.roger_ferrer.Eiciel everywhere given the inconsistent handling of the hyphen in the GNOME stack.
• The extended attributes support is not optional
• The GNOME Files (i.e. nautilus) support is optional
