I'm afraid to ask, but: why does python-gtk2 depend on numpy ? Don't
get me wrong, I like numpy, but, err, needed for gtk ?
Also, does dia really need python-gtk2 for the invocations we are
using ? Or, indeed for most of its invocations ? ... looks at the
manpage ... oh it's primarily a gui program. *sigh*
