I currently use the GtkAda and Gtk (3.8.4) that was distributed by AdaCore as GPL 2015 under Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty-Tahr.
When I tried to install this on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS I could compile GtkAda but after I added /opt/gtkada/lib into /etc/ld.so.cong.ld/ada.conf Ubuntu would no longer boot.

Is there a compatibility issue here?
I tried GtkAda that was distributed with GPL2016 with the same effect.

I am a mere novice with Linux.
My goal is that our Ada programs work under OSX and Linux as they do under Windows.
Hence the use of Gtk for the Gui.
Up to now everything worked as expected under WinXp through Win10, OSX El Capitan and Sierra and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
I therefore naively expected them to also work under Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

Are there restrictions on what version of Gtk run under which flavour of Linux?
If so how do you find out what supports what.

Or is there something that I am doing wrong or have forgotten to do?

Advice gladly received,
best wishes,
Ahlan
