Title:
  WL: gtk 2.14

Status in IUS Community Project:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  DESCRIPTION: GTK2 is the primary GUI toolkit for Gnome-based
  applications

  REASON: I was trying to compile up some various applications this weekend on 
  Centos 5.5 only to find that GTK2.12 or greater is required.  Centos 5 
  only has gtk2.10 which is very old.  There are more and more applications that are making GTK >= 2.14
  a hard requirement (GnuCash, etc.) and as such, they are officially 
  dropping support for RHEL5/Centos5.  There are even long standing Redhat 
  feature requests for this:  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=558788
  I can add additional examples of projects dropping support because of this if you wish.

  I made a similar request to the elrepo group but they felt this
  request goes against their charter and would better served by the IUS
  group:  http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo-
  devel/2010-July/000263.html
