Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.12.1-1
Severity: normal
gnome-control-center relies on the xlibs metapackage, when it should in
fact only be relying on a subset of the assorted X libraries. It already
partially does this, but the xlibs dependancy hasn't been removed.

This was fixed in 1:2.14.1-1 which is in NEW (hence closing with this
version). BTW, #342536, #365977 already requested this.
