Re: problems after upgrade from gtk+-1.2 to gtk+-2.4

["sinecosa" <xavier droubay laposte net>]

Tahnks Yeti for your answer. I just reinstalled old rpms 
gtk+-1.2 and glib-1.2 and everything works fine now. 


For purpose, and if my memory is correct, I had a problem with an install 
of the "pygtk-2.0" package (or newer version) that was complaining via 
pkg-config about the 2 versions of glib-1.2 and glib-2.x.
A subsequent advise (given by pkg-config) of this problem was to 
uninstall old glib version. 
I am not that sure why, but I have successfully installed pygtk-2.0 after 
reinstall of gtk+-1.2 and glib-1.2. Perhaps the newer version of 
pkgconfig-0.15 was the solution of this conflict between gli-1.2 and 
glib-2.x.

However thanks Yeti, for your explanations and advice.
Xavier.

There's nothing like upgrade from Gtk+-1.2 to Gtk+-2.x
(library-wise).

They are incompatible, but can coexist and must be installed
*both* if you have application linked with both.  From
a practical viewpoint they are simply two different
libaries.

Reinstall Gtk+-1.2.
