Description:   Opened: 2003-12-25 11:52 0000 
Grip will compile fine against gtk+2.3.1, yet the ebuild blocks it, saying it
needs the 2.2 branch.  I compiled it today, and it runs fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

------- Comment #1 From Nick Hadaway 2004-01-21 01:36:44 0000 ------- 
There is no gtk+-2.3.1 in portage.

To keep people's systems sane we lock it to the 2.2 series... the 2.3 series is considered unstable and as gtk+ is such a core component of so many people's systems, we try to keep control of it...

The "unstable" version of gtk+ WILL be incompatible with other programs, no doubt.  It's good to know that you have found no problems with grip though. :)

------- Comment #2 From Adam 2004-01-21 13:14:00 0000 ------- 
But there are no other packages that state they need gtk equal to a version
number, (that I have found).  For at least concistancy reasons, it should be
changed.

modified the 3.1.3 and the 3.1.4 build.
