Public bug reported:
With the introduction of libreoffice-gtk2, we now have a dependency
chain of:
ubuntu-desktop -> libreoffice-gnome -> libreoffice-gtk -> libreoffice-
gtk2 -> libgtk2.0-0
I think the bug here is that libreoffice-gnome should depend on
libreoffice-gtk3 instead of on libreoffice-gtk? Either way, now that a
libreoffice-gtk3 package exists, we should surely be using that instead
of pulling gtk2 into the desktop.
I noticed this because components-mismatches reports that libreoffice-
style-elementary should be pulled into main as a dependency of
libreoffice-style-breeze, which is itself only in main because it's a
dependency of libreoffice-gtk2. And this reveals another bug, because
libreoffice-style-breeze depends on 'libreoffice-style-default' - but
there are three packages providing this virtual package in yakkety:
libreoffice-style-human, libreoffice-style-elementary, and libreoffice-
style-galaxy. They can't all be the default, only one of these should
be providing that virtual package...
