List,
 
I would like to request that we move to GTK 2.6 in our Windows builds. The reason for this is compatibility with newer GTK themes which rely on GTK 2.6 or higher. By moving to this version we can allow Windows users to easily change the default GTK theme. All users would need to do is download the desired theme and then copy the files to the /share and /lib directories.
 
Moving forward this functionality could be added through configuration settings in Ethereal to allow better customization of the GUI. Or even perhaps custom skins?
 
I have tested the latest SVN on Windows with the following updated packages and have not experienced any issues. Comments?
