Ubuntu 18.10 drops support for GTK2

Hello!
The "sublibrary GTK2" no longer works on 18.10 (the executables don't run).
And 5.70 beta 2 has issues with buttons and string gadgets that don't happen with 18.04 (they become big).

Where do you have this information from?
Really not supported anymore or just not installed by default? (I'm still on 18.04)
I mean there are still some applications out there which were never updated to GTK+3 (which is damn painful in some cases and as long as it works...
)

Gtk 2 (and PureBasic) works fine under Ubuntu 18.10.
You have to install many libraries, because it is not standard.
