Package: lcl-qt5-2.2
Version: 2.2.6+dfsg2-2
Severity: minor
Your package depends explicitly (not generated) on lcl-gtk2-2.2, which seems
odd.
The widgetsets should be alternatives and should not depend on one another.
But maybe there is an implementation detail that I do not know.

As Paul explained, there are units that need to be shipped by both packages.
In order to avoid marking them exclusively installable, which would be wrong, as
one may want to have them both installed, this is not considered as a bug.
Closing this issue.
