Sorry, I've forgot to close this bug.

gtkhtml 0.7 was already broken before this upload. gtkhtml need gnome-print
0.23, who has never be packaged.

The soname for gnome-print 0.20 was 6, for 0.24 was 11

gtkhtml is needed by the gnome-help-browser binary, but isn't linked
dynamically but statically.

 $ ls -l  /usr/bin/gnome-help-browser
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       633916 nov 20 16:15 /usr/bin/gnome-help-browser

I've enabled --enable-gtkhtml-help for user's request.

I think this should work.

If this work I can remove --enable-gtkhtml-help and libgtkhtml dependencies.
