I know a that a lot of Linux systems are moving toward Gtk 3, but there
are so many packages in the repositories that are still compiled with
Gtk 2 in mind. The authors provide Gtk 3 options for several of them
in the configure process. Geany and the wxWidgets library are a couple
examples.
Is it possible that with Xubuntu and Lubuntu the packages could be
maintained for Gtk 2 but have newer alternative packages compiled
specifically for Gtk 3?
Hopefully more authors start to do this. But then of course, the
applications that rely heavily on canvas drawing will have to switch to
Cairo.
