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.

Gtk2 backend was dropped, so closing.
