Description Julian Ospald 2012-06-10 18:21:47 UTC

These packages make use of gtk3 useflag which indicates that there are issues of migration to gtk+:3.
Gtk3 and similar useflags should be avoided.

Adding to tracker. Please have a look.

We'll consider simplifying the logic for toolkit selection when Emacs upstream will drop support for GTK+ 2, or when GTK+ upstream will fix bug <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715> in GTK+ 3. Whatever will occur earlier.
