Use a private GTK+ Runtime copy on Windows. We've resisted doing this for a while, but this it has become the norm and is the safest thing to do. There are now two installers; an "offline" installer and an "online" installer. * The "offline" installer will contain the GTK+ runtime (very similar to the current default installer). * The "online" installer will not contain GTK+, but will download it during the installation process if it is selected(mandatory if not already present) * Both installers have an option to download debug symbols during installation (Not selected by default). (Another set of updates to support the external debug symbols will follow)
