GTK3 or 4 support due to GTK2 EoL [suggestion]
Not sure if this applies to any other version besides the linux version of the game but it probably would be advisable if no one on development team has brought it up but i think it might be a good idea to either migrate to GTK3 or 4 if possible as GTK2 is currently in end of life and if this is needed for all versions of vendetta but definitely recommend taking it under consideration.
Thanks. I wasn't specifically aware it was EOL, but I'm not surprised. Seemingly it was EOL'd back in 2021.
This broader topic has generally been on my radar recently, though, as I've been looking at how we may re-architecture that aspect of the launcher app entirely. There's a pretty good chance we'll abandon GTK in favor of Qt or Skia+ANGLE or some other thing. But, I don't know exactly when that will take place.
Anyway, I appreciate the heads-up.
(This does only apply to the Linux version, we use native APIs on every other platform).

This was added in 1.8.660 for the 64bit updater only.
- The Linux 64bit Updater now uses GTK 3 instead of GTK 2.
The 32bit updater still requires GTK 2, for the moment.
The 64bit install download will be updated soon as well, but hasn't yet as of this writing.
