Comment:

 g_path_get_basename allocates memory, so you'll need to add a g_free every
 time you call it.



 {{{
 +       //size = res_query( query, C_IN, T_SRV, (u_char*)&answer, sizeof(
 answer));
 }}}

 {{{
 -G_END_DECLS
 +#ifdef __cplusplus
 +}
 +#endif
 }}}

 Why are these commented out?

 There's a lot of good worthwhile stuff in your patch, but also a lot of
 assumingly temporary changes (commenting out #includes, and the sort) that
 don't make sense.

 Also, it's important to us to maintain backward compatibility with GTK+
 2.0.0, which is why we don't outright replace things like GtkActionMenu
 with GtkComboBox, as much of your patch does. Generally, to fix this, we
 either include #if GTK_CHECK_VERSION conditionals, or wrap both interfaces
 in internal.h

 Why does LSB disable all deprecated functions, anyway?
