[...] So do I. 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. libgtk is harmless contrary to real *gnome*

[...] libgtk is a library and I bet you would still have another bunch of useless libraries installed even if amarok dropped GTK dep. However, it's true that libgtk AND its dependencies are rather huge and might seem suboptimal for such a thing as iPod covers (esp. if you don't the
