Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] PyGTKDeprecationWarning

[Michael Dickens]

HI Barrry - GRC uses PyGTK (version 3, to be specific). We use PyQt5 as well as C++ Qt5 for the blocks. Hence when starting up GRC, you'll see GTK warnings (and errors sometimes), but they don't seem to be harmful (at least for now). - MLD

Hi Michael,

Looking at the subject line in my Inbox, it just struck me as strange:
the warning is for PyGTK, and I thought we were using PyQt5. Is that
part of the problem?
