This is a development release leading up to GTK+ 2.18.
Notes:
 * This is an unstable development release.   It has had only little testing and there are unfinished   features and plenty of bugs in this release. It should   definitively not be used in production.
 * Installing this version will overwrite your existing   copy of GTK+ 2.16. If you have problems, you'll need   to reinstall GTK+ 2.16.
 * GTK+ 2.18 will be source and binary compatible with   the GTK+ 2.16 series; however, the new API additions   are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities   between this release and the final 2.18 release.
 * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
