DONE: Don't have webkit2 recommend the gtk2 support. 2. NOT NEEDED: Split the gtk2 part of light-themes to a separate package. 3. DONE: Use a dh_shlibdeps hack to drop the libgtk2.0-0 dependency from these GTK2 addons: a. DONE: gnome-themes-standard b. DONE: gtk2-engines-murrine c. DONE: gtk2-engines-pixbuf (not in default install but installed by vanilla gnome-session) d. DONE: ibus-gtk 4. DONE: Drop gnome-session-canberra's unnecessary manual dependency on libcanberra-gtk0 5. PROPOSED: Either disable Flash in Thunderbird or apply the dh_shblideps hack from Firefox. Either way probably needs Thunderbird Beta, but Thunderbird 59 should be stable or close it to by 18.04 release. 6. DONE in Firefox 58 Beta: Apply the dh_shlibdeps hack to Firefox 7. IN PROGRESS: Prepare a debconf-gtk3 backend and switch gnome- software and software-properties-gtk to use it (LP: #1736618) 8. DONE: Demote kerneloops dependency on kerneloops-applet to Suggests. 9. IN PROGRESS: Don't have ubuntu-desktop or gnome-orca recommend libgail-common. It's a gtk2 library (basically) that gtk2 already recommends. 10: optional: Apply the dh_shlibdeps hack to the gtk2 modules and theme engines that aren't in main. Original Bug Report --------------------------- I can't remove GTK2 from my system, because parts of GNOME still require it.
