[Mike Fleetwood: Explain the underlying cause and distro versions.]
This gnome-desktop commit, first included in version 3.5.5, switched the
package from using gnome-doc-utils to yelp-tools so changed the
installed location of the GNU FDL license file from
/usr/share/gnome/help/fdl/C/fdl.xml to
/usr/share/help/C/fdl/index.docbook, thus changing the yelp URI from
'ghelp:fdl' to 'help:fdl':

The file has been redundant since it was first added [1]. It was never
listed in configure.ac (or configure.in) in AC_CONFIG_FILES. Therefore
autoconf has never produced help/C/Makefile.in and ./configure has never
produced help/C/Makefile. Therefore it isn't used during the build and
install of GParted. Remove it.

gparted-0.3.6 - code recreation from Source Forge
Looking at the SVN history this commit actually fleshed out the
implementations of fat16::get_label() and fat32::get_label() and added
the commented #includes:
https://sourceforge.net/p/gparted/svn/118
Added read label support for fat16 and fat32 using mtools mlabel command
2008-02-12
Then this SVN commit moved the mtools temporary file handling code into
Utils.cc, leaving behind the commented #includes:
https://sourceforge.net/p/gparted/svn/124
Added MTools temporary file handling functions
2008-02-19
Finally this commit removed fat32.cc by merging the code with fat16.cc:

Combine duplicate code for fat16/32
So remove the left behind commented #includes from fat16.cc.
A forum user had a case where they wanted to grow their in use root,
ext4 file system. GParted supports this, but the partition was a
logical partition inside an extended partition and GParted doesn't
support resizing an extended partition while any contained logical
partitions are busy.
Example layout:
Partition File System Mount Point
/dev/sdb1 ntfs
/dev/sdb2 [busy]
/dev/sdb5 [busy] ext4 /
unallocated unallocated
So just allow extended partitions to be resized online when online
partition resizing is available via libparted.
NOTE:
The block device that the Linux kernel provides for an extended
partition just maps to the first 1 KiB of the extended partition where
the Extended Boot Record is stored, and does not include any of the
contained logical partitions. Therefore no application can care that
the extended partition is resized while a logical partition is in use
because it can't use the extended partition block device to access any
data.
The on disk layout looks like this:

Closes!23 - Enable online resizing of extended partitions
With the Gtk3 port the File System Support dialog has become too wide
because the legend text is no longer wrapped. Set the max-width-chars
property to specify the natural size of the widget in terms of
characters [1]. It is converted to pixels using the average character
width in the current font.
Also use PACK_EXPAND_WIDGET when adding the label to the box so that if
the dialog is resized extra space is used to increase the size of this
child widget [2].

In Gtk2 the up and down buttons in a SpinButton were smaller leaving
space for 7 digits before scrolling the entry. In Gtk3 the up and down
buttons are much larger leaving only space for 4 digits. This occurs in
the SpinButtons in the Dialog_Base_Partition class as displayed in the
New Partition, Paste and Resize/Move dialogs.
Set width-chars property of all Gtk::SpinButtons to ensure 7 digits can
be displayed before scrolling the entry.

In Gtk3 the progress bar height is fixed and defined by the CSS theme in
use. Changing the widget allocation size does nothing, it is always
rendered the same way.
In many themes, including Adwaita, the progressbar is very, very thin.
Provide custom CSS to specify a height of 8 pixels.
The CSS source string has to be differentiated for Gtk pre and post
3.20, because Gtk 3.20 introduced some breaking changes in the way CSS
is handled.

The pulsebar looks very small and needs to be widened. The pulsebar is
packed inside the statusbar so that it displays activity text on the
left side and the pulsebar on the right side. Ideally we want the space
to be evenly divided for the textual messages and for the pulsebar
activity indicator.
For this we just have to set the 'homogeneous' property to TRUE for the
statusbar (note that GtkStatusBar inherits from GtkBox).
Also vertically align the pulsebar to the center of the statusbar. This
is achieved setting the 'valign' property to Gtk::ALIGN_CENTER for the
pulsebar widget.

There is a bug affecting Gtk+ 3.22.8 to 3.22.30 in which destroying a
GtkComboBox when it is not hidden results in this message:
Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_is_drawable: assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
This happens in GParted when some dialogs are closed, for example the
Create New Partition and Create Partition Table dialogs. To work around
the issue we call Gtk::Dialog::hide() in the destructors of our dialog
classes.
The issue was fixed in Gtk 3.24.0.
* Gtk 3.22.8 was released in February 2017.
* Gtk 3.24.0 was released in September 2018.

There is a bug in Gtkmm3 when setting accelerator keys on a
Gtk::MenuItem, the accelerator keys work but are not displayed when the
menu is drawn. This happens for Gtk::MenuItems, including derived
objects, that are constructed with a non-default constructor.
All non-default constructors of Gtk::MenuItem, and subclasses, work by
creating themselves a Gtk::AccelLabel and packing it inside the menu
item. But in Gtk3 GtkMenuItem are created with a GtkAccelLabel already
packed in as a child and that accel label should be used instead.
To workaround the issue we only use the default constructor for
Gtk::MenuItem and subclasses. This is easy to do because we only have
to change the wrappers in MenuHelpers.cc.
This bug affects Gtkmm version 3.0.0 to 3.22.2 and was fixed in

Now GParted compiles with Gtkmm3, but we get a failed assertion doing
the following:
* Select a device with more than 1 partition
* Select a partition
* Activate 'Refresh Devices' (or do any operation that causes it, like
mount/unmount etc.)
This is the failed assertion:
**
ERROR:Win_GParted.cc:1152:void GParted::Win_GParted::set_valid_operations(): assertion failed: (valid_display_partition_ptr( selected_partition_ptr ))
Aborted (core dumped)
Where is the problem?
Win_GParted::Refresh_Visual() calls TreeView_Detail::load_partitions()
to clear and refill the treeview.
The problem is in GParted::TreeView_Detail::load_partitions() at
TreeView_Detail.cc:91:
treestore_detail->clear();
This activates TreeView_Detail::on_selection_changed() which in turn
activates Win_GParted::on_partition_selected() passing an old, stale
pointer as an argument. This triggers the failed assertion.
Why does this happen with Gtk3 and not with Gtk2?
First a bit of background of GtkTreeView:
What happens to the selection in a GtkTreeView when the selected row
is removed?
With Gtk2 the selection simply becomes empty, so nothing is selected
afterwards. With Gtk3 this was changed [1] and selection moves to an
adjacent row.
gtk_tree_store_clear() removes rows one by one. While removing rows the
selection changed signal is emitted. With Gtk2 it is emitted only one
time, to indicate that selection has become empty. With Gtk3 it is
instead emitted several times, each time indicating that selection has
moved to the adjacent row.
The handler TreeView_Detail::on_selection_changed() only takes action
when the selection is not empty. So with Gtk3 it really takes action
and activates Win_GParted::on_partition_selected() with a pointer to old
data.
What's the purpose of TreeView_Detail::on_selection_changed()?
Its task is to update the selection in the drawing area above the
TreeViewDetail, the DrawingAreaVisualDisk, so that the selected
partition stays in sync on the two widgets.
Fix by blocking the signal handler during the treeview clear.

gdk_spawn_command_line_on_screen() is not present in Gtk3. The
documentation from Gtkmm 2.24 states [1]:
gdk_spawn_command_line_on_screen has been deprecated since version
2.24 and should not be used in newly-written code. This function is
being removed in 3.0. Use either g_spawn_command_line_sync(),
g_spawn_command_line_async() or GdkAppLaunchContext instead.
g_spawn_command_line_sync() and g_spawn_command_line_async() are screen
/ display agnostic, as such we would loose functionality. There is a
workaround, which involves setting the DISPLAY environment variable [2],
but it's a weak solution (and I don't know if it works on backends
other than X11).
GdkAppLaunchContext is an implementation of GIO's GAppLaunchContext that
handles launching an application in a graphical context [3]. Therefore
use GdkAppLaunchContext and GIO's GAppInfo.
GdkAppLaunchContext was introduced in Gtk2 version 2.14. The C++
wrapper Gdk::AppLaunchContext was introduced only in Gtkmm3 version 3.4
[4]. Bump the minimum required version of Gtkmm to 3.4.0 for this
requirement.
GAppInfo was introduced in GLib version 2.16. The C++ wrapper
Gio::AppInfo was introduced in Giomm version 2.16. Note that the
minimum required version for glibmm is already 2.32.

GParted uses Gtk::TreeViewColumn::get_cell_renderers(). This is not
present in Gtkmm3. Now Gtk::TreeViewColumn inherits from
Gtk::CellLayout and we have to use Gtk::CellLayout::get_cells() instead.
GtkCellLayout was introduced in Gtk2 version 2.18 as the common
interface for containers of cell renderers.
The C++ wrapper Gtk::CellLayout was introduced in Gtkmm2 version 2.18,
but Gtk::TreeViewColumn was never made to inherit from Gtk::CellLayout
to avoid breaking the API / ABI. That change was made for Gtkmm3.
This is an excerpt from gtkmm/treeviewcolumn.h header in Gtkmm2:
// TODO: Should be deprecated, but we cannot derive from CellLayout
// without breaking API and ABI.
/** Returns a list of all the cell renderers in the column,
* in no particular order.
*
* @return A list of Gtk::CellRenderers.
*/
Glib::ListHandle<CellRenderer*> get_cell_renderers();
Replace Gtk::TreeViewColumn::get_cell_renderers() with base class
method Gtk::CellLayout::get_cells().

Starting from Gtkmm3 Gdk::Cursor objects cannot be constructed directly,
but instead you have to get a smart pointer to an instance by calling
the static member function Gdk::Cursor::create().
Gdk::Cursor::create() returns a Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Cursor> object.
Gtkmm3 always uses Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Cursor> in its interface and never
plain Gdk::Cursor.

In Gtk3 individual headers cannot be included directly in application

Use of Glib::thread_init() was deprecated in glibmm 2.32 [1]. The

Checking further the glibmm 2.32 reference manual says this about
Glib::thread_init() [2]:
Initializes the GLib thread system.
Deprecated:
Calling thread_init() is no longer necessary and no longer has any
effect.
However only some of the glibmm example programs had Glib::thread_init()
removed, others had it replaced by Glib::init() [3]. Again the glibmm
2.32 reference manual says this about Glib::init() [4]:
Initialize glibmm.
You may call this more than once. You do not need to call this if
you are using Glib::MainLoop or Gtk::Main, because they call it for
you.
GParted does call Gtk::Main and test_PipeCapture does call
Glib::MainLoop. Therefore just raise the minimum version to glibmm 2.32
and remove both calls to Glib::thread_init().

https://developer.gnome.org/glibmm/2.32/namespaceGlib.html#ac90aee10d0b90e3d8a96a86b5394f87bCloses!22 - Increase minimums to libparted 2.2 and glibmm 2.32
Raise the minimum required version of GNU Parted from 1.7.1 to 2.2,
released 2010-02-16 [1][2]. The oldest supported distributions, also
with gtkmm >= 2.24, since commit [3], are:
Debian 8 parted 3.2
RHEL / CentOS 7 parted 3.1
SLES 12 parted 3.1
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS parted 2.3
Raising the minimum required version allows removal of optional code
associated with these definitions:
* USE_LIBPARTED_LARGE_SECTOR_SUPPORT
Fallback code reporting ignored device with logical sector size
other than 512 bytes.
* ENABLE_PT_REREAD_WORKAROUND
Fallback code re-attempting to inform the kernel of partition
changes.

modern-gtk2: Require Gtkmm version 2.24 (!17)
Closes!22 - Increase minimums to libparted 2.2 and glibmm 2.32
The code inconsistently uses GParted:: scope in front of STAT_*.
$ fgrep 'GParted::STAT_' src/*.cc | wc -l
3
$ egrep '[^:]STAT_' src/*.cc | wc -l
41
GParted:: scope resolution is unnecessary as all the code is inside the
GParted scope, except for main(). So remove it.
Closes!20 - Minor namespace and scope operator tidy-ups
