If your package has to run with the same version of gtk that it's built with, then I think you have a sourceful bug here because your package's dependencies don't reflect this. > > How should we recognize if the binNMU is successful?

Yes, that sounds like the correct fix to me; please make this change in the package, then no binNMU is needed here.
