GTK2 Stepconf should function for a very long time as is, but for development,
 editing glade files requires back porting glade-GTK2 (that's what we do 
already).
This is the same problem with GLADE_VCP.
So this work is in a fix for that problem and is welcome.
Next problem will be porting to python3 before python2 is gone...

I must have missed where your repository is located.
