gnutrition @ Savannah: GNUtrition 0.33
GNUtrition 0.33 is now released. This marks the first release of GNUtrition since 2012, approximately 14 years ago!
GNUtrition is free nutrition analysis software. The USDA Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies (FNDDS) is used as the source of food nutrient information.
This release is a complete rewrite of GNUtrition in C rather than Python 2 with a new GTK 3 interface replacing the old GTK 2 one. The Nutrient Database of Standard Reference, which stopped getting updated in 2018, was replaced with the USDA Food and Nutrition Database for Dietary Studies. With help from some test volunteers, the build and installation process was better streamlined to resolve critical issues and difficulties so that GNUtrition can be a better program overall.
Considering the time between releases, GNUtrition currently is not available on OS package repositories (as far as I am aware). If you package software for your operating system's package manager, it would be very helpful if you could start packaging GNUtrition so that it may be even more easily used by people on said systems. If you don't, you may still request to those who do to start including GNUtrition.
Thank you to everyone who tested/used GNUtrition 0.33's release candidates and provided meaningful feedback on its functionality, design, and so on. I would also like to especially thank Jason Self for providing us with the C rewrite in the first place.
