Error Building via Github Actions about cl-gtk4 HOT 4 OPEN

Or if there is another, better way to build binaries for each platform. I don't particularly care how I get them, I just want something similar to what you see in the assets section of this project. I realize they're doing this on Java, not Common Lisp. But I really... REALLY don't wanna rewrite this in Java, lol.

You should check out the version of GTK4 installed in the CI. The error message said:

Symbol "MAKE-COLOR-DIALOG-BUTTON" not found in the GTK4 package.

where ColorDialogButton was introduced in GTK 4.10.

Aha, it appears that Ubuntu 22.04 only has GTK4.6. I don't know enough about Ubuntu to figure out how to use a newer library, every time I tried it didn't work. I'll do some searching and see what I can figure out.

Meanwhile on my MacOS build script, do you have any guesses why it might be failing? I also need to figure out Windows, but I don't actually know if this works on Windows yet because I don't have a computer to test it on.

My suggestion would be to avoid using the APIs in higher versions of GTK4. Even if you successfully compile the latest version of GTK4 on your CI, it would be difficult to ensure that users have the required version of GTK4.

It seems that gobject-introspection or its runtime is not installed.
