I useed rpm --upgrade for all the packages and dependencies. (Mandrake 10.1 packakes, version 2.4.9)
Rounded corners are absent of icons, buttons, taskbar entries. Everyting is square. Very minor in itself, but I'd like to understand the concepts. I think gdk-pixbuf handles this stuff, am I right ? That's been upgraded.
thanks

Sluggers, can I have multiple versions of Gtk2 on the same box, i.e. 2.2 and 2.4 ?
I have Gnome 2.4 which uses Gtk2.2... I installed Gtk2.4 because I had an app which needed some of the new features. Now the Gnome theme engine is slightly broken - the fancy icons aren't displayed with all their features.
Is this a problem with libpixbuf ?
I suppose this is a general question about how to handle multiple versions of a library on the same box.


In the case of GTK+, the answer is interesting because GTK+ provides API and
ABI backwards compatibility. So, you should be able to replace GTK+ 2.2
without breaking any applications.

So, two questions:

  * How and where did you install GTK+ 2.4?

  * Explain the fancy icon features that aren't working. ;-)

Thanks,
