Apologies for asking this question and then never following up. It's been a bad year for staying on top of my inbox.

Now that you've reminded me of this, I'm fairly sure I've asked this before and you already replied and I forgot. Thank you for the information! Given this, I'll just keep using GTK 2. We're not in any hurry to delete the GTK 2 code entirely. Hopefully someone will feel like finishing the port to GTK 3 before it's entirely unsupported. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
