Howdy all,
I haven't used Ubuntu for the last two years because I was off experimenting with Arch Linux and XMonad. Hey, everyone experiments in their youth. Now that I'm back running Ubuntu again, I am quite confused.
I know there was a major shift with Ubuntu 11 to Unity for the desktop environment over GDE. I assumed this mean there would be no more use of GTK+, as this was essentially part of GDE.
However, I then see forum posts and such about GTK+ themes. So... is Pangolin still using GTK? If so, why doesn't the following say no package found?
pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
If not, what does Unity use to create windows?
