If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GTK+ 2.6.9. * 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.

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.
