Hi,

Because the ABI is incompatible. Apps will need to be recompiled against the new version.

Also, it is not API compatible with latest GTK+ without the flags.

Cheers,

Paul, just in case this wasn't made clear enough already; the GTK+ team want to deploy a GTK+3 that will be API-compatible to the latest GTK +2
including all deprecation flags that are there (disable deprecated,
multihead safe, single header include, etc.).

if its API compatible, why a change in major version numbers?
