Re: [gtk-list] Re: gtk+-971201

[Jay Painter <jpaint serv net>]

Here's a guess: I made a change to gtk+/gtk's Makefile.am.  It had been
hacked at some point so that the shared library version was 1:0:  now, I
thought that libtool default blanks to 0, but so I changed it back to read
1:0:0   I didn't mention this because I thought it defaulted to 0, and
therefore libgtk.so.1.0.0, but maybe you have some libs which are
libgtk.so.1.0, which are not symbolic links, but are the older gtk libs.
