While I agree with your reasoning, I think this would be a too drastic approach. This might make compilation problematic for distros even slightly lagging behind the version the developers have at hand. > Any comments or objections? I'd say, make the version explicit and move it when you feel there is a good reason for a change (like moving to 2.16 now). So I's suggest "Always use the version XXX of gtk+" where XXX would be subject to revision, as often as the developers would feel useful. Taking into account that many distros consciously lag behind the newest software versions, always insisting on the newest one might make LXDE less appealing for inclusion in a distro.
