libgtk1.2 is simple too much widespread to just ignore it. In my case, I upgraded to Karmic to do some tests in preparation of upgrade for ~30 workstations. All of them use legacy software ( a tool for low-level electronic devices ) and that legacy software use libgtk1.2.

Related is the removal of XMMS, which the Central Committee of Free Software - whoever they are - has decided is outdated, despite remaining one of the best and most simple, yet versatile and very low resource using players around. However, there is a repo that offers XMMS and its gtk1.2 dependencies: I just did this in Lucid Live-CD: Installed the following packages: libglib1.2ldbl (1.2.10-19build1) libgtk1.2 (1.2.10-18.1build2) libgtk1.2-common (1.2.10-18.1build2) libmikmod2 (3.1.11-a-6.1) xmms (1.2.11-1) ... using the Karmic entry here: http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/ This might also work for other apps - XMMS works in Lucid Live-CD with all the settings and plugins simply copied from an old system - see also: http://colonos.wordpress.com/?s=xmms -- libgtk1.2 missing on karmic/lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I completely agree with you Samus Aran. Running old software on linux is a pain. There is no binary compatibility, there is a theorical source compatibility, but it never compile easily. Because a lot of linux geeks forget about the fact that old software can be GOOD software ! Compare it with windows, you run a windows 3x binary and it still just work 95% of the time out of the box. I feed disapointed with debian package management : it's difficult to maintain multiple version of a library installed on the system. -- libgtk1.2 missing on karmic/lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 478219] Re: libgtk1.2 missing on karmic
It is very horrible of a distro to remove easy access to essential libraries like GTK+ 1.2.x and libstdc++5.x, which are required by thousands of programs still used by Ubuntu users. It isn't hard to maintain two libraries, yet these two libraries cause more issues when missing than any other unsupported libraries. Why is it so hard to have an optional package for these libraries? -- libgtk1.2 missing on karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For the people that want gtk1.2, your best bet is to work together to maintain it in a PPA. It was quite deliberately removed from Debian and Ubuntu because it's no longer supportable. The last gtk1.2 was a very long time ago. Certainly no more recently than 2002: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/gtk+/1.2/ See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=520441 for additional details. A number of people are also unhappy about the libstdc++5 removal.

[Bug 478219] Re: libgtk1.2 missing on karmic
The package was removed for good reason - GTK1 is an obsolete version, has been deprecated for 8 years, and a significant amount of effort was spent to remove dependent applications or port them to GTK2. It is not the responsibility of Ubuntu developers to guarantee workable conditions for commercial linux applications and games outside the repository; the best solution for such software would be to bundle the required libraries. ** Changed in: gtk+1.2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Won't Fix -- libgtk1.2 missing on karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478219 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
