"required gtk+ version 3.10, current version is 2.24" - Glade+Python 2.7

I want to use Glade Interface Designer with Python 2.7, but when I try to run my code I get the following error:

:required gtk+ version 3.10, current version is 2.24

I have the gtk+ 3.10 installed, but I don't know how to change the path to use the 3.10 version.

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Solution

  • You are using PyGTK, which is only for GTK+ 2. Switch to python-gobject, which allows using GTK+ 3. Coding with it seems to be very similar to coding with PyGTK, so migrating your code shouldn't be too hard.
