Hi -

I've seen a couple of people say that gtk+2 is not a supported version. Could we clarify that? Is it gtk-gnutella that doesn't support it, but which
allows it, or is gtk+2.x considered an unsupported product?


The reason I ask, is that I assume the second case to be what's meant, yet gtk is clearly under constant development on sourceforge, and a bug fix release was just made available a short time ago. That is not what I would call unsupported. They appear to have made significant releases in June, August, and September of this year, and their web site makes no mention of the project being killed.

Would someone then please clarify what is meant by 'gtk2 is unsupported' ??

Thanks,

Hi Carl,


first, a quick answer. gtk2 support has not been discontinued because it's
a faulty product, or anything.

The most important fact here is that none of the current dev.s use the
gtk2 interface, so they (naturally) don't track and support changes for the
gtk2 interface. However, there is interest in supporting it (from the dev.s
and from users of the gtk2 interface).

In fact, current cvs should work comparably in either interface. (Release
has an extra possible crash for gtk2.)

The statement that the interface is unsupported is equivalent to saying
old versions aren't supported. No one is currently available for bug fixes
and support for these versions.

Peace,
Clayton
