I was under the impression that GTK+ 2 is going away; why is it worth to have a metabug for a dying technology?

TDF only builds against GTK+2 and the GTK+3 backend is still a work in progress, so GTK+2 will be around for a long time, and as such, it is more used and more tested.

Please use this for issues that are exclusively related to the GTK2 backend.
Comment 4 Buovjaga 2019-10-19 08:22:18 UTC
Gtk2 backend was dropped, so closing.
