Description Thomas Wood 2007-11-14 09:44:24 UTC 
The "name" property of GtkAboutDialog was removed in 2.12 because of a conflict with the "name" property of GtkWidget (bug 345822). However, it would be nice to have some sort of warning in the documentation of gtk_show_about_dialog() as this breaks applications written using the GTK+ prior to 2.12.

Also, the "program-name" property should be marked "Since: 2.12".
