I think to use gtk's own libraries, not a bundle anymore. It
takes less space
and does not interfere with other software on the machine.
It will be a lot of work without a lot of added value.
On Windows platform it is a huge potential problem source. I had
some bad
experiment with zlib. On a PC I saw 12 different version and it
is a hard work
to keep everything working. Using a bundle provide the same
version for gimp,
ekiga.... Especially GTK
The pros for using a local gtk are:
- I noticed also problems with some users where zlib found was too
old and ekiga did not start for them.
- a bundle of 40M is too big, we cannot tell user to download 60
MB for ekiga installer
40MB is for the whole package :
GTK runtime : 17.2MB
GTK bundle : 27.2MB
Usage of package avoids maintaining version. Compiling GTK with
mingw is not so easy
The pros for having a global gtk is:
- security, updating the zlib library will benefit all
applications using it
However, in Windows world each program comes with its own
libraries, as far as I know, so I prefer a local gtk.
