    >For anyone who does not know yet, STLWRT is the successor to GTK+ 2 ... >But after that's done, it'll be time to run a build of the whole thing and see how many megabytes of warnings and errors we get. The last time I ran a build, I got over 100 MB of errors and warnings! This seems a little ambitious for something that doesn't build. TIL though that MATE dropped GTK2 support 3 years ago: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/03/mate-1-18-desktop-released-now-gtk3 https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/03/mate-1-18-desktop-releas...

      It builds ,but the project is not yet complete. both gtk3 and gtk2 apps can be run under STLWRT. It is made to revert controversial Design changes that GTK3 brought which some opposed(and many liked). https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/horrible-gtk3-gnome-ui-design-is-leaking-into-ubuntu-mate-applications-in-20-04/22028/17 https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/horrible-gtk3-gnome-ui-desig... https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=59646#p59646 https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=59646#p59646
