Description:
Matthias Clasen has written a short update on a GTK hackfest that
took place at FOSDSEM and what's
coming in GTK 4.18. This includes fixes for pointer sizes in Wayland
when fractional scaling is enabled, removal of the old GL renderer in
favor of the GL
renderer introduced in GTK
4.13.6 , and deprecation of X11 and Broadway backends with intent
to remove them in GTK 5. The deprecated backends will remain available until then, and no
action is required by developers at this time, Clasen wrote: " There
is no need to act on deprecations until you are actively porting your
app to the next major version of GTK, which is not on the horizon
yet ".
