Overlay scrollbars aren't present // no gtk3 version

Realistically, GTK3 isn't happening in chrome until GTK3 is in an LTS version of Ubuntu, is common in other distributions, and a certain proprietary browser plugin vendor has ported their very popular plugin to GTK3 (because otherwise we'd have a process trying to link with both versions of GTK).

Realistically, any native widgets in the web content area aren't happening: http://dev.chromium.org/developers/linux-technical-faq

Well, Konqueror uses Qt/KDE and can run GTK2 plugins, like flash.

Konqueror/Qt doesn't define symbols with the same names as functions in GTK2. The problem is that the majority of functions in gtk2 and gtk3 have the same symbol names.

If Qt defined (for example) gtk_widget_show(), there'd be conflicts and I'm pretty sure Konqueror wouldn't be able to run gtk2 plugins.

It does.

Can you give an example of symbol conflict in QT+GTK2 in Konqueror? Seeing that almost all symbols in QT start with q, and GTK start with g or gtk/gdk, I can't think of how the symbols could conflict. Meanwhile you could say almost all symbols in GTK2 would conflict with GTK3 (they are not prefixed with numbers i.e. GTK2 or GTK3, only GTK). (Not to mention QT is in C++, uses namespace. By the way, the namespaces in gtkmm version 3 is still the same as its predecessor)

This bug report is more a rant than a proper bug report.

For details about GTK+2 use in Chromium, see http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=79722.

And... one issue per report, please. Ayatana scrollbars and GTK+ issues are unrelated.

Chromium doesn't use GTK scrollbars. That's the bug.

Should there be a new bug registered for Chromium not using Ayatana scrollbars then?
