Details

pcsc-tools 1.5.4-1 currently has a hard dependency on perl-gtk2, which is wrong for 2 reasons:
1. GTK is only used by the "gscriptor" tool contained in the package, but that tools requires perl-gtk3, not perl-gtk2.
2. gscriptor is just one (GUI) tool, whilst the package also contains three CLI tools that don't use GTK at all.

Hence, the hard dependency on perl-gtk2 should be replaced with an optdepends on perl-gtk3.
This task depends upon

You clearly meant 'gtk2-perl'.
