Drop gtk2 #66

Closed BryanQuigley closed 3 years ago

BryanQuigley commented 3 years ago

With GTK4s release (https://blog.gtk.org/2020/12/16/gtk-4-0/), GTK2 is soon to be EOL. Let's drop compatibly with it.

We could also likely drop support for the first few versions of gtk3 (3.2/3.4), but that;s not included.

Added g_error back. I think you are right it makes sense to drop them in a separate PR. Is NEWS still relevant - it hasn't been updated in a while - happy to update it if wanted.

Does GTK3.4 make sense as a new minimum?

mvo5 commented 3 years ago

@BryanQuigley Thanks again for this PR! One small comment inline and I think gtk3.4 sounds fine as the minimal version. NEWS was not touched for a while but might be a good time to resurrect, I mostly did not use it because I did not have time to properly maintain this :/
