The reason I see this at all is because I use a source installation (not a
windows installer) of THG.
I did ask a similar question last month, which Steve answered with >= 2.10
http://n2.nabble.com/thg-dev-Development-environment-td3389128.html
However, it is not a big issue for me to upgrade.
On the other hand, if we want to support 2.10 then somebody should test on
2.10
The windows installer wiki states that 2.12 is used for building.
http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg-winbuild/wiki/Home
I have found no instructions for usage on Unix.
I suppose debian is the most conservative distribution, and it has 2.12 as
the current supported stable version
http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gtk+2.0.html
An overview over debian releases
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian
What should be the policy of TortoiseHg?
- Current stable PyGtk (2.14)
- Two years of gtk? (2.10, but 2.12 in a week or so)
- Two stable versions of GTK (current is 2.16, so that would be 2.14)
- Two stable versions of PyGTK (2.12)
- Debian stable? (2.12)
- Debian old-stable (2.8)
- Other suggestions?
A random pick from my side would be Debian stable.

Peer
