[Users] Claws Mail 3.17..6 on openSUSE Leap 15.2

[Lyle Bickley]

Hi Dave,

I download from git and compile from source every two or four weeks to support
the claws developers. I think they appreciate those of us who do so - kinda an
informal "test regimen".

I wasn't really "concerned" about the warnings - I just wanted to provide an
observation of the change from openSUSE Leap 15.1 -> Leap 15.2.

Paul got back to me with the fact that the issue lies with gtk2 code and not
claws (I probably should have caught that myself, actually). But it's helpful
info to anyone else who is compiling in a similar manner as I do.

Cheers,
Lyle
