I must say, it's a little bit unfortunate that the version that supports gtk 2
is numbered 3.0. My brain wanted to read that a couple times before it made
sense to me. For me, this makes it a little easier to parse without having to
think quite so hard:

"Virt Viewer 3.0 was the last release that supported GTK2"

Nitpicking. Feel free to use whatever.
