That's what the log say -- assuming gtkclist > is representative -- which I would guess it is. It is not representative. GtkCList is long deprecated, and there's a working replacement for it. It is basically just kept around for backward compatibility. What is really a burden is how difficult it is to add new features to widgets that are still being used. And that's because forward compatibility has not always been considered well enough in the past. From what I understand the GTK+ developers are now trying to eliminate that mistake.
