gtk and linux
Hi, Is there a list of linux flavors like Ubuntu, KDE, Red Hat... that include or don't include gtk? And, let's say that a type of linux doesn't include gtk, how difficult is it for an average computer user to install gtk (on a scale of 1 to 10)? -- Craig craigbakal...@verizon.net ___ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
Re: gtk and linux
Hello Craig, It seems that an average user has to be able to install linux and then configure it (if possible). That is why I cannot give you an skill level... maybe 7, or 7.35-7.63 :) Is there a list of linux flavors like Ubuntu, KDE, Red Hat... that include or don't include gtk Even if your disto does not have GTK packages, you can build them from sources or try to search for some ports. This task probably can be performed by 8 or 9 skilled average user.

And, let's say that a type of linux I think all will include gtk, either as part of the standard install or available via the package manager. To install from the package manager you just need to type gtk and click the install button (details vary a bit). Even this step is usually done for you: if you install a program which needs gtk, gtk will be automatically installed for you. doesn't include gtk, how difficult is it for an average computer user to install gtk (on a scale of 1 to 10)? Building and installing the whole of gtk from source requires a lot of skill and work, but I think no regular user would ever need to do this.

It lists the packaged version of Gtk+ for every version of the distribtion. E.g. for Fedora: http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=fedora and see the row labelled gtk+. Distros that do not package Gtk+ at all are very rare (mosty those not including any GUI whatsoever).
