Hi Graham,

as I added the gnutls package to the repository after Gerald added the GTK+
2.24.23 bundle, I would have considered that the former has the latest
version (as it was the one available on OBS servers by that time). But has
the exported symbols seem to be the same, it does not seem to matter much
(and as you said it just seems to *work fine* right now). Maybe it was just
compiled with a different compiler version or set of options. I see that
OBS is still on version 3.0.13 which was released in 2013, so this is most
likely the same version.

Pascal.
