Control: tag -1 + patch Hi,
I've landed here after I was surprised I have GTK+2 on my freshly reinstalled sid system. I've successfully built src:thunderbird with the attached (git format-)patch applied and the resulting thunderbird binary package has the intended relationship to libgtk2.0-0: Suggests but not Depends. I'm using the resulting binary package in production, it Works on my Machine™. (Jeremy: do you use usertags or something to track your "no GTK+2 installed by default" efforts?) Cheers, -- intrigeri
