libyui is used by YaST. I'm surprised to learn it's used by anything
else. It's not good. The GTK+ support has been very broken for a *very*
long time (~2011) with buttons running off the edge of the windows, to
the point where openSUSE switched to just using the Qt interface at all
times. You can do much better using Qt or GTK+ directly, indeed.

Well, you are right… Rendering of GTK2-based apps was broken in GTK3 / GNOME3 for long at that time; GNOME3-developers official statement about that was: "Users of GTK2-apps are not our target audience…"

Luckily libyui-gtk was ported to GTK3 in July 2012 and works fine since then. :D
