Hi Alex,
There is no problem (that I'm aware of) with any versions on Linux, except of course new features were added over time. Since everyone wants to use the shiny new things, they want a newer version.
Also as newer features replaced older ones, some of the tools (glade) discontinued support for the older features making it hard to continue to use older versions.
True. Glade 3.10 is a real $!#!@@$$## that don't even work for GTK2 anymore :@
But on windows, as I understand it, GTK 2.16 is ok, but something(s) that was changed in 2.18 and broke stuff on windows, I'm not sure exactly what.
Client-side windows.
There are not many contributors to GTK for windows so it took a long time for the problems to be fixed (assuming they are) so it isn't until about 2.24 that the general consensus on the gtk ML seemed to be that it was ok.
AFAIK yeah, with 2.24 GTK works all fine again on Windows. This said, I found many app working just find with 2.22, and I think 2.18 too. Actually I'd better say that >= 2.16 && < 2.24 had *some* problems, not that they were completely broken.
Cheers, Colomban
