I've no idea if I'm supposed to answer this via email or some other way :D

My answer is "no", i don't want to merge gtk3-no_deadkeys_underline into gtk3-
classic

People can use gtk3-classic, it's probably better maintained and tested than 
gtk3-no_deadkeys_underline, but I am personally not interested in all those 
other patches, i'm just interested in the no_deadkeys one, which I created for 
me to use, i only put it in AUR because others asked me to.

If it is really necessary I'm open to amending the Description to somehow 
mention gtk3-classic 

Cheers,
  Albert
