  Please, we would like to get rid of libperl-gtk (and libglade as
well). I'm not versed in perl, not really in gtk either for the matter.
I don't think porting dfontmgr to gtk2 is a really hard work, and I'd be
glad if someone could provide some patch.

  dfontmgr (in defoma) is the last important package in the way of
removing libperl-gtk from testing, I'd be really glad to get some help
here.

Cheers,
