I tried again and it still didn't work. I traced it through glibmm to
glib and saw /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gio/modules in strace. I looked
at what files go there with apt-file and found gvfs. Installing gvfs
almost fixed it; gvfs-backends was also needed. Now I can search for
clipart.
So maybe add Recommends: gvfs-backends? It added another 15MB to the
disk usage for me.
