Then the bug should be reassigned (either by you or Ben) to libgtk1.2 and
retitled to "remove dependency on gconv-modules". Also, bug reports should
be filed for all other packages depending on gconv-modules.

submitting bugs for them (I didn't) is an easy task.

Please upload everything you do, and let Jeff know about the source package
