[developers] lui depends on (obsolete) gtk+ 1.2

[Stephan Oepen]

hi c.j.,

> version of libgtk.  This version is no longer shipped with Ubuntu.

the dynamic dependencies of the (old) `yzlui' binary are included in
both the LinGO builds and LOGON tree, where the standard setup should
set up $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include `lkb/lib/linux.x86.??/', such that
the dynamic linker can resolve the `libgtk-1.2.so.0' dependency.  one
should not have to get additional libraries or tweak $LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

either way, as pointed out by francis and woodley already, we are in
the process of replacing `yzlui' with `pangolui', based on revisions
originally contributed by pavel (for improved UniCode support), with
woodley now developing these further.

if you wanted to give it a shot, a statically-linked `pangolui' comes
with the LOGON tree, or can be downloaded as

  http://svn.emmtee.net/trunk/lingo/lkb/bin/linux.x86.32/pangolui

to activate this, set the shell variable LUI to "pangolui" before you
start the LKB (or emacs, if running the LKB within emacs).  e.g.

  export LUI=pangolui

for background, please see LkbLui in the DELPH-IN wiki.

--- anyone who ends up experimenting with the new `pangolui', please
let woodley and me know how things work out for various languages.
