== Background == Mozilla on Linux has traditionally been built as a widely usable package, relying on runtime checks and workarounds to support older libraries or work around known bugs. This is has historically resulted in unpleasant compromises and increased maintenance overhead. == Proposal == In conjunction with the currently proposed reference platform library versions:Linux community, we will define and maintain a reasonably modern and stable set of runtime requirements, and focus on supporting Mozilla apps to run against those requirements. Distros providing longer-term support (i.e. enterprise distributions with long lifecycle requirements and older libraries) would then be responsible for maintaining support via build-time switches. == Proposed Runtime Requirements ==
* GTK+ 2.10.x
