Note that matlab-support being a support package for proprietary MATLAB software, it does not use gtk2 itself, so removing the Recommends is straightforward. However, the problem is that MATLAB, even in its latest version (R2025b) still relies on gtk2 for some of its functionality, and does not vendor the library but uses the distro-provided one. Hopefully they will remove that dependency in some near release, but even that will not solve the problem for older MATLAB versions. -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Sébastien Villemot ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Developer ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://sebastien.villemot.name ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ https://www.debian.org
