geany-plugins build-depends on libwnck-dev, which in turn depends on GTK 2.

GTK 2 was superseded by GTK 3 in 2011 (see
<https://bugs.debian.org/947713>). It has been discontinued by its upstream
developer and no longer receives any upstream maintenance.

None of the built binary packages depend on libwnck22, which makes me
think that this build-dependency is probably unnecessary? If so, please
remove it, bringing us one step closer to being able to clean up this
technical debt.

Thanks,
