The commit message says:

It seems mrpt in unstable uses opencv3 which uses gtk3, so presumably
this means the described breakage can currently be seen in unstable.
Is there a reason not to apply the changes from that commit to the mrpt
version currently packaged rather than waiting for a new major upstream
release to happen?
