@deprecated

libgtk-java 2.10.2 is part of the java-gnome 2.x family of libraries which had
few users and no mature applications built using them. As result, java-gnome
2.x never made it to production quality and remains both buggy and incomplete.
A major re-engineering effort, termed java-gnome 4.0, is underway to produce an
entirely new set of Java bindings. The 2.x family as a whole has therefore been
declared deprecated pending imminent removal.

Those interested in using GTK and GNOME from Java are invited to join the
java-gnome hackers in their effort to bring the new 4.0 bindings up to speed.

Note to developers: As has been advertised for several release cycles now,
achieving an algorithmic mapping of the underlying GNOME libraries required a
significant ABI break from 2.x to 4.0. You are advised not to use the old
libraries for new projects.

Note to downstream packagers: There will not be a libgtk-java as an
individually released library in 4.0.  There may be a gtk-java, or perhaps
java-gtk, but most likely will just be a .jar and .so build product from a
single module source release. For further details, see
