I'm trying to install latest release of Gedit. It's my favourite editor for coding. And I'm following this guide: https://installfights.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/install-lastest-gedit-version-3202-on.html



However, when I get to the point where I need to install gtk library version 3.22.x I can't seem to find it freely available online.
I'm not allowed to proceed in installation because of this error:



Requested 'gtk+-3.0 >= 3.22.0' but version of GTK+ is 3.18.9


So I'm currently running 3.18 and I need 3.22 but where to download it ?

The latest source code of should be available at Gtk+: Download for GNU/Linux and Unix. Older point releases are available from this page as well.



You will of course need to build the libraries yourself from this source - there is a PPA of version 3.22.28 backported from Artful but I can't vouch for it.
