      GTK cannot be statically linked. Or if it can (I
        may have failed to keep up with changes in GTK3) it requires
        special compile-time configuration options.

                portability
              Hi, I have
                made a Linux gtk3 program and have it running on my
                Debian Mint AMD64 machine.
              I mistakenly
                thought that the program file (binary file) held all
                that was needed to run.
              I moved the
                program file to a newly installed Mint 18.1 and ran into
                a few difficulties.
              1. I had to
                install libsdl2 to get over the first hick.
              2. My
                program was looking for libglew.so.1.10 but what was in
                the repository was 1.13 obviously a slightly later
                version.
              3. I
                overcame hick 2 by pulling over C++ and gtk3 and
                recompiling from source.
              Maybe you
                guys and gals can give me a few pointers so that I can
                generate the program file (binary file) without all the
                above hassle? Regards Ian.
