Package: dwb Version: 20130503hg-2 Tags: patch Quoting from the file INSTALL in the root of the dwb source tree:
The default build process will try to link against gtk2, if gtk2 isn't installed it will link against gtk3. Reading through irc logs for #dwb exposes some critisism on the matureness of gtk3. Until upstream considers gtk3 being ready for prime time by building for it by default, it makes no sense that the debian packaging deviates from upstream by linking towards libs not primarily developed for. Please consider applying the suggested fix from: (also attached) http://git.netizen.se/git/dwb/commit/?h=fix/use_gtk2 Thank you, -- /Martin
