There may be very few warnings, for which it may be ok to ignore it. But generally, there is a reason why warnings are shown. Indicating that something is wrong, and the software may not work properly. I would very strong try to avoid software which continuesly emit warnings -- that may be an indication that the software is stale, nobody cares about it, so it may have dangerous (security) bugs. One example was indeed gvim, I have stopped using it. If you really need that software, you may contact its author or maintainers of your OS distribution, maybe it is a problem of the distribution, maybe they ship too old or incompatible libraries or are doing something just wrong. So we should be happy that these warnings are shown at all, it would be much worse when they are invisible or do not exist at all and software just malfunctions in rare cases. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
