GTK+-1.3.3 Release



GTK+-1.3.3 has been released. This is a preview release of the
unstable branch of GTK+ and is meant for:

 * Those interested in the development of GTK+. 
 * People planning to port to the upcoming GTK+-2.0 version of GTK+.
   Note: this is a tentative API-freeze release, major API changes
   beyond the remaining open '2.0 API freeze' bugs in bugzilla are
   unlikely to occour before GTK+-2.0 is released.

GTK+ is a widget toolkit for X and other windowing systems. It 
is used in such projects as the GIMP and GNOME. For more information
about GTK+, see http://www.gtk.org


GTK+-1.3.3 is available for download from:
 
 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.3/gtk+-1.3.3.tar.gz

GTK+-1.3.3 also requires GLib-1.3.3 and pango-0.14:

 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.3/glib-1.3.3.tar.gz
 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.3/pango-0.14.tar.gz

This is a an unstable preview release and should not be used in
production. Only minimal testing has been done, and we expect that
significant bugs and portability problems remain at this point.

This release is incompatible with GTK+-1.2.x. Software that has not
been explicitly ported will not compile with this version.  Do not
send bug reports about such compilation problems to either us or
maintainers of software that uses GTK+; GTK+-1.2.10 is the currently
supported version.

If you install this version, do NOT replace your current GTK+
with it. You should be able to install it alongside your current
GTK+ without disturbing your current GTK+ installation.

Bug reports and comments about this version of GTK+ should be sent to:

  gtk-devel-list gnome org
  http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
