 Apparently there is a ABI breakage with gtkmm24 2.18.1 (which is the
 current version for F-12 final). See
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533638 (filed by gnote
 developper Hubert Figuiere).

 Most of the gtkmm-using apps in F-12 were not compiled against 2.18.1, but
 seem stable nonetheless, based on my own testing and from the lack of bugs
 filed.

 So the question is: do we leave things as they are now and push 2.18.2
 directly to stable after F-12 is released, or do we take preemptive action
 and tag 2.18.2 for F-12 final. I realize it may be too late for this
 anyway. However I'm pretty nervous about shipping a known ABI-breaking lib
 into F-12 final as you can imagine...

 Gtkmm24 2.18.2 build :
