Hi All,
I just wanted to follow up a couple of recent discussions on our build dependencies.
1. There was some talk of moving to C++17. Tav - I think you were going ahead with a dependency bump in master? Are we still doing this, or did we find any issues?
2. Are we OK to bump to Gtk+ 3.24? AFAIK this is the final Gtk+ 3 version so would be a good stable target for Inkscape 1.1. The only issue would be RHEL/CentOS/Debian LTS are stuck on an older version. My feeling about this kind of thing is that we keep Inkscape 1.0.* as our LTS and push ahead with a dependency bump in master.
Best wishes,
Alex
