It now has a hard dependency on libepoxy, and provides gtk-icon-update-cache.
Highlights from release notes:
* Improve client-side decorations without a compositor
* Theming: Fixes for the HighContrast theme
* GtkMenuButton:
- Improve accessible names
* GtkCellRendererPixbuf:
- Always follow state changes, the ::follow-state property
is now ignored. This is necessary to make HighContrast
and symbolic icons remain visible e.g. in selected rows.
* GtkEntry:
- Rework the size allocation code to be less arcane. This
changed the semantics of the get_frame_size() vfunc. GtkEntry
subclasses that override this vfunc may need adjustment.
* Go back to requiring GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS support for CSD,
to fix shadow problems in KDE.
* GtkFileChooser:
- Don't start search too eagerly
- Use fts with tracker

* GtkPopover:
- has a map/unmap animation now
* GtkListBox now supports models with gtk_list_box_bind_model
* GtkNotebook has a new function to support tab dnd
* GtkSidebar was renamed to GtkStackSidebar to better convey what it does
* GtkFileChooser now has a location column for search
* GdkGLProfile has been removed
* GTK+ types now support the GLib g_autoptr() facility for
automatic cleanup of automatic variables. GTK+ itself does
not use g_autoptr() internally.
* GtkSearchEntry has gained ::next-match, ::previous-match
and ::stop-search signals and a gtk_search_entry_handle_event()
function, which help in providing a richer search experience
and make search entries usable outside of GtkSearchBar.
* GtkFileChooser:
- The search has been reintegrated in the UI, there is now
a toggle button on the header bar to go to search mode,
in addition to the Alt-S shortcut.

as some other options (debug, forward compatible) when creating
a GdkGLContext

have been updated, with the exception of gdkgears, which will be fixed
in the next snapshot
- Use shader version 1.50
* GtkTextView
- Allow to customize multi-click behaviors, using the new
::extend-selection signal
- Selection can now be extended by scrolling
- Better behavior and appearance for text selection with touch
* GtkApplication:
- Use app menu fallback with ssh connections

* CSS:
- Introduce immutable style nodes
- Performance improvements
- Reduced memory consumption
* GtkInspector:
- Add a magnifier for the selected widget
- Show more display information
- Show memory address of objects
* Wayland:
- Use subsurfaces for popovers, so popovers can extend beyond the
window boundaries
- Prefer the Wayland backend over X11 if both are available
* GL:
- Fix interaction with hi-dpi

- Allow extension with loadable modules, the first use for this
is gjs-inspector, which adds a JavaScript prompt
- Allow testing cursor theme changes
* GtkPopoverMenu: A GtkPopover subclass that makes it easy
to manually build menu-like popovers which can include
arbitrary controls.
* GtkModelButton: A button widget that is optimized for
use inside popovers with a GAction as 'model'.
* GL support:
- Try harder to pick good visuals
- Rework the way GL rendering is done in GtkGLArea
- Support input events in GtkGLArea

characters for dashes, quotes, multiplication signs and the
like, instead of ASCII approximations
* Theming:
- Context menus use the default font instead of inheriting from
the widget they are attached to
- Theming engines are no longer used

Highlights from changes:
* GtkPopover: A new widget that is can be used for transient
views, as an alternative to menus or dialogs.
- GtkMenuButton can use popovers instead of menus
* Client-side decorations:
- Make F10 move focus to the header bar
- Make header bars draggable on touch systems
- Make shadows unclickable
* Printing: Google cloud print support
* GtkActionBar is a new widget that is meant to be used
for actions at the bottom of a window.
* GtkAppChooserDialog has been redesigned
* GtkBox can now place a widget centered, regardless of
the sizes of children on either side, similar to GtkHeaderBar.
* Dialogs:
- Dialogs have been modernized, can use a header bar now
- Built-in dialogs react to a setting, gtk-dialogs-use-header
for this, dialogs derived from GtkDialog: default to no headerbar
- GtkAssistant also respects the setting
* OS X:

and 'Show All' are now handled specially
- GTK+ provides a default application menu now
* Theming:
- GTK+ now uses RGBA visuals by default

child like GtkHeaderBar. It can be used in places
where header bar theming is not suitable

and modernized
* GtkHeaderBar button theming has been changed to be
more flexible. There is now a gtk-decoraton-layout
setting and a decoration-layout property.

for themes to opt out of the tab rendering, with the
'has-tab-gap' style property. The Adwaita theme is using
this to achieve a more modern tab appearance.
* GtkFlowBox: A container that its children in a reflowing
grid, which can be oriented horizontally or vertically.
It is similar to GtkListBox in that the children can
be sorted and filtered, and by requiring a dedicated child
widget type, GtkFlowBoxChild. It is similar to GtkTreeView
in that is supports a full set of selection modes, including
rubberband selection.
* GtkStack: children can now indicate that they require
attention by setting the needs-attention child property.
* Broadway now requires binary array buffers and modern WebSocket
protocol support
* Autoscrolling in range widgets has been improved to work more
reliably in maximized windows.
* GtkSpinner has been changed to render in in a limited set of
sizes.

settings again.
For full details see:

Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.

This is causing problems (3.9.6 to 3.9.8):
* We've started deprecating GtkStock apis. These apis will continue
working until GTK+ 4, so there is no need to rush to replace them.
For more information, see
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2013-July/msg00000.html
Wholly deprecated as part of this effort:
GtkIconFactory, GtkIconSet, GtkIconSource, GtkImageMenuItem,
GtkAction, GtkUIManager
Other highlights:
* Theme support
- Always fall back to 'gnome' icon theme in addition to 'hicolor'
- Respect deprecated gtk-button-images setting
- Respect deprecated gtk-menu-images setting

- Add accessible names to csd window buttons
- Mark GtkLinkButton as visited when appropriate
- Add a GtkListBoxRow accessible
* GtkLabel can now ellipsize just the last line,
ellipsized in multi-line labels.
* GtkInfoBar now uses a GtkRevealer internally to slide in place.
It is no longer necessary to do that manually.
* GtkHeaderBar can now add a window close button
* The fine adjustment mode for scrolling has been revamped to be
easier discoverable, and visual feedback and autoscrolling has
been added.
* GtkIconTheme now supports 2x scaled icons for hi-dpi displays.
* The Wayland and X11 clipboard implementations can now coexist

gtk-file-chooser-backend,
gtk-enable-tooltips,
gtk-visible-focus,
tooltip timeout tweaks,

* Initial support for scaled output (on high-dpi screens) has been
added. While this can be built with cairo 1.12, it needs a cairo
branch to work. Support for this has been added to the Wayland,
OS X and Windows backends.
* GtkListBox:
- handle double-clicks properly
- add an example in gtk3-demo
* GtkSearchBar: a toolbar that will popup automatically when
searches should be started, and dismissed when they are finished

use .symbols files, and instead rely on explicit header annotations
for every exported symbol. the abicheck scripts are no longer used.

XCopyArea for scrolling, instead an offscreen cache is used. There
is a new debug flag, GTK_DEBUG=pixel-cache for this.
* Window sizing issues have been addressed.

to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
Rename patch-gtk_a11y_gail.c to patch-gtk_a11y_gtkaccessibility.c
Many improvements, bug fixes and translation updates:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/NEWS?id=3.8.2
Highlights:
* Deprecations and removals:
- Custom CSS properties have been deprecated
- Support for color schemes has been removed
- gtk_style_provider_get_style, gtk_style_provider_get_icon_factory
- GtkGradient and GtkSymbolicColor
- All the padding style properties in menus
* CSS improvements:
- Add cycle detection to color resolving
* A lot of filechooser button fixes
* The print dialog now shows printers that are discovered
using avahi, if configured with --enable-avahi-browsing
* We now support the Window Manager frame synchronization protocol draft (when
running under a WM that supports it). This means applications will throttle
their drawing cycle to what the compositor is drawing, and the compositor
will never render half-updated windows, for seamless resizing and improved
smoothness in drawing.
See https://mail.gnome.org/archives/wm-spec-list/2013-January/msg00000.html
and the articles at http://blog.fishsoup.net/ for more details.
* We now support setting an opacity to any GtkWidget, not just toplevels:
gtk_window_set_opacity has been deprecated in favor of gtk_widget_set_opacity.
* GtkIconTheme gained asynchronous loaders for GtkIconInfo objects
* GtkIconInfo has changed from being a boxed type to a GObject. This
is technically an ABI change, but basically all existing code
will keep working if its used as a boxed type, and its not
possible to instantiate GtkIconInfos outside Gtk, so this is not
expected to be a big problem.
* GtkTreeView and GtkIconView allow single-click activation
* GtkImage can be set from a resource
* GdkWaylandDisplay is now public
* gdk_window_set_fullscreen_mode: new function to let windows
be fullscreened across multiple monitors
* We now use state flags for text direction: GTK_STATE_FLAG_LTR/RTL.
gtk_style_context_set_direction() has been deprecated.
* We install headers for accessible implementations of GTK+ widgets.
This makes it possible to implement accessibility for third-party
widgets by subclassing the proper GTK+ implementation. To do this,
include gtk/gtk-a11y.h.
* Invisible widgets now return a size of 0x0. This is an experimental
change that makes GtkWidget::visible essentially behave the same way
that "display: none" does in CSS. If you want the effect of CSS's
"visibility: hidden", you can use a GtkNotebook with an empty page.
* GtkFrame now draws a background.
* The Broadway backend now installs a separate server: broadwayd.
* GtkBuilder now lets you refer to external objects from a ui
file if the objects have been exported with the new function
gtk_builder_expose_object()
* Font handling has been improved:
- The default font is no longer handled like a custom style sheet
that overrides everything, but as the initial value. This is the
same behavior as in web browsers.
- It is now possible to set font-family and font-size like other
CSS properties, and relative font sizes are supported. Font
sizes in CSS can be specified as numbers or with keywords
like xx-small, medium, smaller, larger,...
* GTK+ now uses proper Unicode ellipses in strings.
Changes in 3.6.4:
* Bug fixes:
691186 stylecontext: Make font hack not crash
Changes in 3.6.3:
* The Wayland backend works with Wayland 1.0.0 now
