The problem with 2.24.x seems, which I just realized, that the Gtk team have changed their general release policy couple months ago. Originally the last official release of the gtk 3.x branch was announced to be 3.22.x, everything higher was supposed to be development versions for upcoming gtk 4: https://blog.gtk.org/2018/06/23/a-gtk-3-update/ So current gigedit code assumes 3.24.x to be already Gtk 4 API and different major Gtk API versions (unlike with Qt) are in general completely incompatible with each other. I currently don't have gtk 2.24.x installed here, but it should be relatively easy to fix. All the gtk version (in)compatiblity issues are handled in source file src/gigedit/compat.h. You find a bunch of gtk version checks there, reach out for ones that look like this: GTK_MAJOR_VERSION == 3 && GTKMM_MINOR_VERSION > 22 and change them accordingly to GTK_MAJOR_VERSION == 3 && GTKMM_MINOR_VERSION > 24 If you got it working there, do others a favour and send us your patch please!
