[Gimp-developer] Minimum required GTK version for GIMP

[Carmelo DrRaw <aferrero1975 gmail com>]

Dear all,

I have noticed that recently the minimum required GTK version was bumped to 2.24.32

Is this due to functionalities that are not available in 2.24.31, or does GIMP work OK with the previous 
version?

I am asking because GTK 2.24.32 is not available as a binary package on CentOS 7, the system I am using to 
build the weekly AppImage packages. 
Therefore I would need to compile GTK 2.24.32 from sources, which might require to also compile from sources 
a lot of dependencies.
Before starting to fight with dependency compilation, I’d like to know if it is acceptable to compile a 
distribute GIMP packages that are based on GTK 2.24.31

Thanks a lot in advance.
