[Gtk-sharp-list] TypeInitializationException with Gtk# 2.12.10 on Windows Vista

[David Cantin]

Any chance you have the gtk+ runtime installed on your xp computer and not
on your vista or seven one. Because the new gtk-sharp installer (2.12.10)
have stop shipping the native gtk+ dll.

You can find gtk+ installer here
