When upstream supports both, and the maintainer wishes to do so as |
| 25 |
well, I would strongly recommend to support both, so that end-users |
| 26 |
can make their own choices. Some may wish to use the applications in a |
| 27 |
light-weight gtk2-only environment such as LXDE. As long as gtk+:2 is |
| 28 |
supported in the tree, I don't see why we should artificially restrict |
| 29 |
such choices for our users. |
