I don't see what is supposed to be the problem about an application that is written for GTK2 shipping GTK2. Why is that a fate worse than death? By what means is anyone being forced to "churn", adopting GTK3?
- yjftsjthsd-h 2y agoTargeting GTK2 is fine right up until distros drop it, which I'm pretty sure has already happened in some cases.
- jabl 2y agoSo then you do what ardour did, bundle (a subset of) gtk2 with your app sources? Not necessarily worse, and certainly a lot less work, than writing your own GUI library from scratch, that you then have to bundle with your app anyway because it's an obscure library nobody else has ever heard of?
