+
+wxWindows 2 for GTK is a port of wxWindows to the GTK+ toolkit,
+which is freely available for most flavours of Unix with X. wxWindows 2 for GTK is
+often abbreviated to wxGTK. wxGTK has a separate home page here.
+
+
+
+
+Currently wxGTK does not have any features that would involve dependence on any desktop
+environment's libraries, so it can work on GNOME, KDE and with other window managers
+without installation hassles. Some GNOME and KDE integration features are file based, and
+so may be added without dependence on libraries. Other features may be supported in the
+future, probably as a separate library.
+
+
+
+
+It seems that some versions of RedHat include a badly patched version of GTK (not wxGTK)
+which causes some trouble with wxWindows' socket code. Common symptoms are that when
+a client tries to establish a connection to an existing server which refuses the request,
+the client will get notified twice, first getting a LOST event and then a CONNECT event.
+This problem can be solved by updating GTK with an official distribution of the library.

+Robert Roebling replies:
+
+"The important thing is the libc version that your app
+is linked against. The most recent version is 2.2.5
+and programs linked against it will not run with version
+2.1.X so that you will fare best if you compile your app
+on a 2.1.X system. It will then run on practically all
+Linux distros (if you link you app statically against
+the image libraries and std C++ lib)."
