GTK+ 2.7.4 is now available for download at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.7/ gtk+-2.7.4.tar.bz2 md5sum: 1a121264a4ba2e208c025d9eb0515d41 gtk+-2.7.4.tar.gz md5sum: 0bd5dfa7334a20bb0efdd582704f84b6 This is the fifth development release loading up to GTK+ 2.8. Notes: * This is unstable development release. There are certainly plenty of bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be used in production. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GTK+ 2.6. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GTK+ 2.6.8. * GTK+ 2.8 will be source and binary compatible with the GTK+ 2.6.x series. The new API additions in GTK+ 2.7.x are finalized at this point, and GTK+ 2.7.x should be considered API frozen. Unless serious issues with the new APIs come up, there will be no API changes between this release and the 2.8.0 release. * Remaining issues for GTK+ 2.8 can be found with following bugzilla query: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=gtk% 2b&target_milestone=2.8+API+Freeze&target_milestone=2.8 +Freeze&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. What is GTK+ ============ GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites. GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development. GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.
