Indeed, but what I also see is that libgpod4-nogtk has no cover capabilities.

So my question is the following : what will happen with Amarok if if try to 
deal with Ipod covers and that the gtk library isn't installed ? If we just 
have libgpod4-nogtk ?

For me, the ideal situation would be for Amarok to detect that it's working 
with the nogtk version and so, just display to the user : functionnality not 
available, please install libgpod4, for eg.

Personnaly, I got no Ipod and I'm running on KDE 4.3 so I don't really care 
about that functionnality and I'm trying to get rid of libgtk (only use by one 
software on my system : Amarok). I guess that I'm not alone, so giving the 
user some choice would be really great.

Thank you.
