myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: NOTICE!! New GTK2-0705.dsl file replaces gtk2.dsl

Add the gtk2 update commands to bootlocal.sh and you will be good to go.

If you have the gtk2-0705.dsl in your mydsl=hdXx area,
and it is autoloading at boottime, add the line..

start_gtk2

to your /opt/bootlocal.sh , and it should install and update
before you even hit the desktop..

Question...is the new gtk2 dsl backward compatible with the remaining apps that you haven't upgraded?? Or in other words, do those apps still need the 'old' gtk2.dsl??

I have upgraded or revised most of the apps
that are in the 'gtk2' section of the repository.

Those new revisions now sit in the 'testing' area,
along with the new gtk2-0705.dsl.

Those gtk2 apps in 'testing' MUST use the newer gtk2-0705.dsl.
They are further stripped of common libs and files that could more
easily be managed and upgraded by combining them into one gtk2 file.
Trying to run these with the older gtk2.dsl will probably leave your OS
looking for libs , and causing dependancy issues.

The ones currently in the 'gtk2' area do seem to work fine for me,
using them with either the old gtk2.dsl , or the newer gtk2-0705.dsl.
( Many of the files in the current extensions are duplicated in the newer gtk2-0705.dsl file.. I would choose to use the leaner of the two..)

If you don't wish to redownload them all over again,
contact me about information on getting the extensions on a CD.

Very soon here, after a little more feedback, I will be removing all
of the contents of the current gtk2 area, and replacing them with
the files now sitting in 'testing'..

I've already downloaded all of the new apps specifically built for gtk2-0705. Just wanted to make sure that some of the "un-converted" apps would run with the newer gtk-0705 without any problems.
