GTK Applicability to RHEL 7.9

Platform
1

I am new to Linux. I want to use GTK with my RHEL Server 7.9 OS. When I look at the Installation page for GTK, it says that GTK is for GNU/Linux. Is GNU/Linux a specific type of Linux? Does it include RHEL? Can I install from the GTK repository on the GTK website, or do I need to get it from some RHEL repository? Bottom line question is: What do I need to do to get the latest version of GTK running on my RHEL Server 7.9 system? Thank You

Yes, RHEL is a GNU/Linux distribution. You can install GTK3 on RHEL 7.9 from its repositories, complete with the files needed for development. Not sure, but I think this is the command:

sudo yum install gtk3-devel

Of course the latest is Gtk4

Of course the latest is Gtk4

Gtk4 is too new and not available in RHEL7. They should use gtk3 instead.

That worked for me.
