# libglade

> Libglade is no longer maintained, as its functionality has been folded into GTK in the form of the [GtkBuilder class](https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkBuilder.html).

\- https://download.gnome.org/sources/libglade/

libglade does indeed use python 2.

`configure` outputs the following:

```
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.0... python
checking for python... /usr/bin/python
checking for python version... 2.7
```

`libglade-convert.in`'s first lines have the following:

```
#!@PYTHON@
# -*- mode: python -*-

# yes, this requires python 2.x and an XML parser module (eg. PyExpat)
```

I suspect that python 2 is used only for libglade-convert and nothing
else.
