Re: [RC] GTK+ 3.4.2/3.6.4 Bundle (Win32)

[tarnyko tarnyko net]

Responding to myself for the sake of the cause. 

I've pushed a bug in Bugzilla for the patch I use to compile GTK+ :
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695368 

It's already fixed in 3.7, but if the patch is integrated, compiling next 
stable will be easier. I hope that's what I'm supposed to do. 

Btw, I found "gtk3-demo" and "gtk3-widget-factory" depend on GNOME Icon 
Theme for some button icons. They display red "fails" icons without it (see 
http://www.tarnyko.net/repo/gtk-demo-3.6.4-win32-bug.png)
Problem being that the theme is > 60 Mb, which makes a BIG bundle, most of 
it would be the theme indeed !
I might do a lightweight theme containing only the needed icons. Better 
ideas ? 

Regards,
Tarnyko
