Well, libgtk is libgtk1.2 and libgtk2.0. But still, libgtk2.0 is at
version 2.2.x right now ...

No, i think not.
BTW, i have tried running lablgtk2 apps on a machine with only a S3 Trio
as graphic card with 4Mo of memory, and they don't launch, well, there
is cpu acitivy and lot of swapping, but they don't appear on the
screen. I am running at 16bpp and 1024x768, which makes 1.5Mo of video
ram only. Anyway, i guess it is good to keep lablgtk1.2 around also for
older slower machines.
