Thank you,

so I made two mistakes. I forgot to switch and assumed that development
of the gtk3 port is in sync with the gtk2 version of Claws.

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ cd /tmp/claws
[rocketmouse at archlinux claws]$ git describe --abbrev=0 --tags
3.17.0
[rocketmouse at archlinux claws]$ git rev-parse --short HEAD
f4607b4b6
[rocketmouse at archlinux claws]$ git checkout gtk3
Switched to branch 'gtk3'
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/gtk3'.
[rocketmouse at archlinux claws]$ git describe --abbrev=0 --tags
3.16.0
[rocketmouse at archlinux claws]$ git rev-parse --short HEAD
