Re: more Alpha package updates

[Bob Tracy <rct@gherkin.frus.com>]

Started down the rabbit hole that is "gnome" package building :-(.
Eventually ran into a build dependency conflict that required forcing the
configuration of a built and installed-but-unconfigured package (libgtk-3-dev)
to allow one of its dependencies (dconf-gsettings-backend) to be built.  Not
sure how this kind of thing gets resolved officially.

Continuing down the list of unsatisfied dependencies, can't build the
various "d-conf" packages without "valac", so *that's* building as I
type this.  Having fun (for some definition of "fun"), or I wouldn't be
trying it.
