Now pardon me for lack of geek evolvement but what advantages does GTK2/XML2 have? Eh - or to put it more simply - what is it?* Puppy version 1.0.3 is in a transition phase, still using GTK 2.2 and an earlier version of XML2. Thus, applications that use these libraries may have to be compiled on Mandrake 9.2. It intended that all of Puppy's GTK2/XML2 applications will be recompiled on Vector 5.0STD by the release of Pup 1.0.4.
PS. I am stuck in Vector Linux installing upgrades that may or may not allow me to compile C programs. I may have done that by the time of version 1.0.4
I am gonna open friendly relations with Vector Linux (I did write a long letter to Austrumi on their forum but inadvertently failed to post it). They do not call me claws for brains for nothing . . . [sob]
