So far I have not had much success with compiling Pan on Windows using a
newer version of GTK, so I was wondering what everyone thought about
packaging the older GTK Runtime with the PAN install? I think that all
I have to do is also distribute the source with the install package to
comply with the terms of the GPL. Does anyone know if this is the case
or do I just have to make the source available?
In some limited testing if I put all the required GTK libraries into the
same folder as Pan it ran fine and I was also able to install the newer
runtime so I could run Ethereal and Gaim.
Pros:
One install
Can coexist with other apps that require a more recent GTK Runtime.
The GTK Runtime on Windows seems to be a bit of a moving target...
Cons:
Installer will be much larger
Thoughts?
