The GNOME developers are hard at work these days to bring us the second and last official point release of the stable GNOME 3.16 desktop environment, which was announced back in October 2014.

GNOME 3.16.2 should be out any time now, which means that most of the core components and applications received updates, which leads us to the stable branch of the well-known GTK+ GUI toolkit.

GTK+ 3.16.3 is now available for download, and it fixes numerous bugs, among which we can mention an issue with the gdk_set_program_class() function that breaks --class, problems with the HighContrast theme, inverted horizontal sliders, and an xgettext crash on MSYS2.

Moreover, the PANGO_ENABLE_BACKEND option has been removed from gtksettings.c, the Font Chooser has been modified to reload list of families and styles on theme changing, unused struct field has been removed from GtkFontChooserWidget, and notifications will be sent for test fails that don't have a session bus.

Many other issues have been resolved and translation updated

In addition to the fixes mentioned above, GTK+ 3.16.3 brings minor updates to the GtkMessageDialog documentation, addresses an issue with left/right tilting of mousewheel for horizontal scrolling on Windows OSes, fixes initial shadow width for full-screen or maximized windows, and repairs the Split Headerbar unmaximize issue.

Furthermore, the File Choose search functionality has been updated to work over remove network shares, an issue with incorrect linking in GtkSearchEntry documents has been fixed, a segfault problem has been repaired in GdkOffscreenWindow, and multiple issues with the GtkStackSwitcher, GtkStack, GtkWindow, and Adwaita theme have been repaired.

Last but not least, the Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Danish, French, Icelandic, Occitan, Russian, Slovenian, and Ukrainian translations have been updated. Download GTK+ 3.16.3 right now from Softpedia. This version should appear in the main software repositories of your GNU/Linux distribution in the coming days.
