DetailsDescription:
libreoffice-gnome currently depends on both gtk2 gtk3 - I believe both should be changed to Optional Deps (or, if possible, split into separate gtk2 and gtk3 packages). It doesn't break anything to ignore one of the packages (on my system for example, I use libreoffice-gnome without gtk3 installed and it defaults to gtk2 just fine). And gtk2 users who otherwise have no need for gtk3 should be able to use this package with gtk2 without having to pull in gtk3. Additional info: * package version(s) * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: *Make sure gtk3 is not installed ***pacman -Sdd libreoffice-gnome*** *Run libreoffice without any problems in gtk2 anyway. |
This task depends upon

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: These are upstream decissions how to split the packages. And the way they do it pulls in both gtk versions for good reasons. Don't install the gnome-integration if you want to avoid installing some gtk version or abuse pacman with -Rdd.

gtk2 users who use packages like gconf-gtk2 in AUR won't have issues with superfluous dependencies pulled in with this package and gtk3 users will have their gtk3 dependencies installed by virtue of having standard gconf anyway.
