You keep emphasizing the problem with LGPL. That is also a
problem with any use of Gtk. If you used Gtk with any other
language, then you would likely have the exact same issue.
PyGTK is LGPL, for instance. Your issue isn't with D or GtkD,
except to the extent that other GUI libraries aren't as
developed or don't have licenses you are happy with either.
GTK was already evaluated by IP department and I could use it as
long I do dynamic linking and do not copy any code snippets from
gtk code base.
Kind regards
