After further consideration, the probably best solution is to split out /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache into a separate package. gtk-update-icon-cache doesn't have any libgtk-3-0 dependencies, so we could break the dependency cycle at this point. I propose to name the package gtk-update-icon-cache. I was told that Fedora chose the same name, which is a fortunate incident. Theme packages will need to be updated to depend on gtk-update-icon-cache instead of libgtk-3-bin or libgtk2.0-bin. I will also update gtk2.0 to no longer ship /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache in libgtk2.0-bin, as there is no good reason to do so any longer. From now on we will only ship one implementation of gtk-update-icon-cache which is built from src:gtk-3.0. This means we will drop our Debian-specific /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0. According to codesearch, this affects only a couple of packages, which can be simplified as part of the process. buzztrax should be updated upstream to drop the Debianism. It also allows us to drop the diversions from libgtk-3-bin. Another positive side-effect is that we can drop debian/patches/01_gtk-update-icon-cache_name.patch from gnome-themes-standard. All in all a net win, I'd say. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
