Re: Possible MSW-only fix for print bug

 

Jeff,

The GTK builds in the wild are usually on the 3.0 branch since that is what
most distributions ship as their pre-built library (see here for a brief
rundown: https://repology.org/project/wxwidgets/versions). There is some
resistance in the distributions to package the 3.1.x version (see here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1714714 for Fedora's
reluctance, and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=919903 for
Debian's refusal), so it is looking like distributions are just skipping
3.1 and waiting for 3.2 to be released.
