Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] PyGTKDeprecationWarning

Hi Barry - Short answer: probably yes, should be fixed. Longer answer: The likelihood and difficulty of fixing deprecated API depends mostly on whether we can cleanly switch to the new API, or if we have to add in some "if" version checking logic to use the old API or new API. If we can cleanly do so, then YES PLEASE let's do it! If the solution isn't clean then it's worth opening a GR issue noting what's going on & why it's not a clean change & then we can get back to it in the future ... once maybe it will be a clean change. If you have the bandwidth right now to figure out what's going on, that would be great! Otherwise, I'd advise you to open a GR issue and provide what info you can there. Hope this is useful! - MLD

Hi,

When I load a new Embedded Python Block in a flowgraph, I get the
following warnings. This is before I have made any changes to the code.
GR 3.8-maint, GRC 3.9.

```
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages/gnuradio/grc/gui/Dialogs.py:362:
PyGTKDeprecationWarning: Using positional arguments with the GObject
constructor has been deprecated. Please specify keyword(s) for "title,
parent, action, buttons" or use a class specific constructor. See:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py:571:

favor of "transient_for" respectively. See:

```

Is this something that needs to be fixed?
