Re: [arch-general] LightDM GTK+ Greeter 2.0.0
Hi all, Version 2.0.0 of the LightDM GTK greeter was released about week ago. This release drops GTK2 support. That's ironic, Xfce recommend lightdm as DM for the gtk2 theme, and the upcomimng xfce-gtk-engine 3.1 drop gtk3 support. Therefore I propose to rename the current lightdm-gtk3-greeter into lightdm-gtk-greeter and drop the legacy lightdm-gtk2-greeter to AUR. looking oxygen keep the gtk3 in AUR gtk3 only themes tend to use gtk3 and gtk2 only thend to use gtk or gtk2, I will preffer keep the 3 in the name. I could keep lightdm-gtk2-greeter around for a while in [community] if some people want me to (I'm thinking people using MATE for example, but it's going towards GTK3 anyway), but keep in mind that you can use LXDM instead if you really need a GTK2 display manager. Or Xfce4 users, the upcoming xfce4 release is gtk2, and only after that the migration to gtk3 will start. so a gtk2-greeter will be apreciated until xfce drop gtk2, and dont forget that LXDM is now presumably unmaintained or in low maintainance since they migrate to QT If there aren't any objections by the end of the week, I'll proceed with my proposal. Me Cheers, -- *Pablo Lezaeta*

No, they did not, that would be a feature for GTK+4. They just discourage people from using it and they keep telling them to just use css. I suppose you meant that gnome-themes-standard dropped the gtk+3 engine and you are right, simply because Adwaita doesn't require it anymore. -- Note: My last name is not Krejzi. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

The SD cards are working flawlessly while micro SD cards used with SD adapters aren't working at all. I have given the micro SD card to a classmate, otherwise would've tried it again.
