In NEWS it says 1.8 I think.

I have updated pkgsrc, and it builds and runs on NetBSD 9 amd64.  With
gtk2 I got a build error, but after flipping to gtk3 the build was ok
and it worked, so I decided that was good enough, as people will be
talking about deleting gtk2 as soon as they are done purging python2.

There was a new dependency of json-glib, but that was not a problem,
just unexpected.


As always, thanks for engaging in the glorious struggle to keep viking
working and getting better as the world changes around it.
