Good question! Some of them are statically linked with GTK 1.2, I think it's a build time configuration option. I just renamed my copy and ran one Loki Setup, this is what I got: Gtk-WARNING **: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Gdk-WARNING **: Missing charsets in FontSet creation [other stuff that's probably unrelated snipped] But the GUI appeared anyway. So I'm not sure what it's doing - trying to use the systems copy and otherwise falling back to a builtin one? Then I tried another, for the game "Dark Horizons Lore" and it didn't show the GTK UI, but it still "worked" in that it fell back to an ncurses based install. This was the error: /root/.setup4665: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Text based installers for games are from the DOS era though. I don't think that should be counted as working.
