Yes.

Perhaps not because of some dependencies (perhaps because GTK 1.x

a lot of other stuff.

Well, my reasoning was, that we just try to wild guess about
user capabilities. I have just learned that user behave very
unexpected and exactly these users happen to be quite vocal
how broken Debian is. I just would like to give them lesser
chances to be correct when they claim this.
Kind regards
