further checking proves that the gtk-xmhtml lib in no way depends on GNOME. It
however is in their source for gnome-lib and controlled by their configure
script.
The depends on this package are wrong, no GNOME is needed. In the future if
this could be in its own tar ball rather than shoe horned into gnome-lib, we
can build this without GNOME depends.
Please ask the upstream to free gtkxmhtml of gnome-libs and place it in its own
tarball.
The same can also likely be said about libart and a few other pieces of
gnome-libs.
