Off-topic: Off-topic addendum: I don't want to sound too preachy here, but I feel you guys might suffer far fewer headaches on the Linux side of PM/UXP, if you'd go Slack. Slackware -current ships w/ GTK 1, 2, 3, & 4 and Qt 5 & 6, plus a default install includes a full development suite with everything from gnucobol to ninja, including both python 2 & 3, with gcc version 15.2. (It also has Qt Designer and Glade standard.)

...just sayin'... Carry on.

Off-topic: I use GTK2 for linux Pale Moon.

I am not a power user. Just someone is between a power user and a non-technical user. When I tried Slackware about 6 months ago, it did not appeal to me. Six things which I did not like.

  1. There is no graphical installer
  2. No automatic package management
  3. Fewer user friendly tools.
  4. Installing a desktop environment is not easy
  5. Multimedia support or installing drivers takes extra steps which can be daunting
  6. And I am not a fan of heavy Terminal usage

Some people like minimalism, but I am not one of them. As they say; "To Each, Their Own".
