news 28 Posted July 12, 2010 GTK+ 2.90.5 is now available for download at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/2.90/ http://download.gnome.org/sources/gtk+/2.90/ 8c3c2b461c5a9e0c07dcc320d6362728284e8294f2cd77428d51694c15681264 gtk +-2.90.5.tar.bz2 e04066adad9f4544d5d0d4f9f467b14581adfae2d1487072c0baca9ddd4bc06e gtk +-2.90.5.tar.gz This is the a development release leading toward 3.0. Notes: * GTK+ 3 will be parallel installable with GTK+ 2.x, and this release has been prepared to test this by renaming all .pc files, libraries, include paths, and so forth, to include a '3.0' component. * GTK+ 3 will remove deprecated API from the GTK+ 2.x series and make struct members unavailable that have been GSEALed in 2.x. Therefore, applications can be prepared for porting to GTK+ 3 by making sure that they build with -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED and -DGSEAL_ENABLE. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. What is GTK+ ============ GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites. GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development. GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.
