If I could I had already done that. Like I said, I can't remember to
have done it differently, so most probably I didn't. I don't know either
what you did wrong (if anything), and as I can't reproduce the problem
you're having, I can only tell you once again to check whether this is
an application-specific problem by testing other Gtk+ 3 programs in your
KDE environment.

"it won't work" is no helpful error description. Please provide detail
on how it fails (and/or another code snippet), otherwise nobody can help
you.

Gtk stock items will be removed with the next API break, Gtk+ 4.0 –
unless maybe someone convinces the Gtk+ devs that the deprecation was no
good idea or something like that (highly unlikely AFAICT).

Whether there will be information on how to replace Gtk::Stock depends
on whether someone volunteers for writing it. There probably is
information on how to replace the Gtk+ C API stock items already (search
through the existing mailing list discussions, e.g. [1]), and it
shouldn't be too hard to find out how to apply that to gtkmm.
