Ah, here's something relevant. This example relies on Red Hat's openshift:

Dear Allin,
I am trying your solution but it seems that Gretl is build using gtk2
Configuration:
Installation path: /usr/local
Use readline library: yes
Use gnuplot for graphs: yes
Use LaTeX for typesetting output: yes
Use libgsf for zip/unzip: no
MPFR support: yes
sse2 support for RNG: yes
OpenMP support: no
AVX support for arithmetic: no
Build with GTK version: 2.0
Build gretl documentation: yes
Use Lucida fonts: no
Build message catalogs: yes
X-12-ARIMA support: yes
TRAMO/SEATS support: yes
libR support: yes
ODBC support: no
Experimental audio support: no
Use xdg-utils in installation: if DESTDIR not set
but in terminal the gtk3 seems to be installed
*dpkg -s libgtk-3-0|grep '^Version' | cut -d' ' -f2-*
*3.8.6-0ubuntu3.1+broadway2 *
how can I force Gretl to builld againt GTK3.
I tested with gedit and it works perfectly.
