Upgrading to testing/gtk2 provides gail, but packages built with gail>=XX.YY.ZZ as dependency won't let gail to be removed. After pacman -Rd gail && pacman -S gtk2, those packages give a warning.
Eg.
missing dependency for libgnomecanvas : gail>=1.22.0

Should the packages be repacked to depend on gtk2 or gtk2 be repacked to provide gail=XX.YY.ZZ ?

However, afaik this shouldn't affect performance, it's "just" a pacman warning.
This task depends upon
