Hi,

+  * debian/control:
+    + Downgrade from R to S (gtk2-engine-themes): murrine-themes. (Closes:
+      #838994).

The above issue resolves a long standing dependency relation between
gtk2-themes-murrine, murrine-themes and any other murrine-like theme not
bundled in murrine-themes.

One probably has to go over the discussion backlog of #838994 and #891493
for fully getting the scope of the underlying issue.

This issue was in fact discussed before the buster release but the
original maintainer of gtk2-engines-murrine refused to make the required
dependency downgrade change.

In unstable, the situation has now been settled, the recommendation here
is, to get the situation also solved in Debian buster.

Thanks,
Mike
