When will gtkmm version 4 package be available?

Post by prem00tta »

I see that the first stable version of gtkmm-4 was made available in December. When will it be available through the Synaptic Package Manager for Linux Mint? The package manager only lists libgtkmm-3.0.

Possibly in Linux Mint 21 next year, when it switches to the next Ubuntu LTS package base. Right now that package isn't available in any Ubuntu or Debian distribution. development or stable.

As that message notes you can compile it yourself if you need it now for your development work.

Thanks xenopeek. I can stick with 3 for now. I was just trying to follow the docs for version 4 and it was confusing. I've bookmarked the version 3 docs, so I'm good to go.
