I don't do any programming, including python. I've encountered a python situation which I'm wondering would be a huge task to remedy or not.

XAMPP is a package of programs which is installed to linux w/ an install .run file from apache friends. There is an associated xampp-control-panel.py file which is apparently derived from an xampp-control-panel.glade file, both in the opt/lampp/ share/xampp-control-panel dir. Apparently this CP feature of xampp is not maintained (files dated 2009) and the 2009 CP readme says:

To run the XAMPP Control Panel, you will need:

     Linux (may work on other OSs)
     GTK 2.x
     PyGTK (also known as python-gtk) 2.x
     XAMPP

I installed py2 to my Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.2 (off Ub LTS 20.04) but that didn't solve the problem w/ running the .py file w/ python2; I got a traceback saying there was no gtk module. The pip I have is for py3. I can put the .py file on pastebin if anyone wants.

Apparently the Win v. of xampp has a CP based on Delphi someone said, so that one is being maintained.
