The only thing that would not really fit from a purely technical perspective is the windowing system used (though that does not fit in "Version" either because it does not say anything about its version), but I don't think that is a problem.

"Running with" / "Running on" are some other ideas. In any case, I think the "Using" label should now go as its purpose would be now covered by the tab title.

However for applications, it is really annoying (several Kdenlive users complained and I fully agree) to not have this information clearly displayed as soon as the About dialog is displayed. I understand the interest of having a separate version tab displaying the various underlying libraries used, but I propose to display again the application version in the About dialog header (see screenshot).
