Oké, but our advices, though both valid and sane, should not be mixed

My proposition was to use an older version of Gtk3 to match the system
installed introspection stuff. As you first tried Dave's solution, you
uninstalled the system stuff, and thereby removed the situation my
advice was based on.

Dave's advice was to install from scratch giving you the newest
versions.

As you now uninstalled the system stuff, and you have run several cpanm
commands using local::lib, your ~/perl5/lib/perl5/ might now contain
stuff that mismatches your expectations.

On my openSUSE-42.3 I use a non-system perl-5.24.1, and typing

 $ cpan Gtk3

worked like a charm.

Then I took clawsker-1.0.2, changed all Gtk2:: to Gtk3::, split the now
unsupported new_with_markup into new + set_markup, and stopped trying
after

utf8 "\xB4" does not map to Unicode at ./clawsker line 2493, <RCF> line 699.
utf8 "\xA9" does not map to Unicode at ./clawsker line 2493, <RCF> line 699.

Can't locate object method "sensitive" via package "Gtk3::SpinButton" at ./clawsker line 571.

Commenting out the two sensitive lines for the spinbutton caused

`Behaviour' is not of type Gtk3::Widget at /pro/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.24.1/x86_64-linux-thread-multi-ld/Glib/Object/Introspection.pm line 67.

no more time to dig deeper. I'll stick to the Gtk2 version
