I want to replace them with a single package, "roxterm". I'm not quite
sure how to set up the package relationships to do this. I would like
the new roxterm to automatically replace roxterm-gtk3, so I think I need
to add Replaces: roxterm-gtk3 to the new roxterm, and AFAICT from the
policy manual I should use Breaks as well (rather than Conflicts).
Depending on its size, it may be better to keep roxterm-common: this package
is arch:all and this would avoid duplication these data for each arch.
Next, you may want to consider what will happen if (or when?) gtk4 appears on
your radar screen: will you split roxterm package again ?
