1. wxEuphoria and GTK

Questions:

1. Does wxeu.so use GTK?

2. If YES, then which version(s) does wxeu.so use? GTK1? GTK2?

3. What happens if someone has GTK2 but not GTK1?

1. Yes.
2. GTK 1.2
3. I think it would pretty much do and feel the same. However, i'm not too
sure of that. You can always download GTK 1 stuff if there's a problem.

Matt mentions in the documentation that when he upgrades the wxWidgets 
version that he uses, wxEuphoria will then use GTK 2+

Yes.

v1.2.X

It probably will fail to load the shared library, since several dependencies
won't be there.  Are there systems that have GTK2 but not GTK1?  I suppose
some custom, semi-minimal distro might, but (and I'm not an expert here)
anytime GTK2 is installed, GTK1 seems to be there, too.

The thing is, that GTK2 is somewhat Backwards Compatable with GTK1, but not
enough to really justify just having GTK2 installed.  It's best, to ensure that
there are no problems, that GTK1 also be installed.  Should be able to install
GTK1 with no problems.

The person who had the machine-level error message was using Fedora Core 5.
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=fedora

I see GTK2 but not GTK1.

1. Does that mean it does not have GTK1?

2. Could that cause the machine-level error message?

GTK1 does NOT come with Fedora Core 5...
but can be installed via yum
