Bug#833676: no smooth upgrade path from libreoffice-gtk to libreoffice-gtk2



Source: libreoffice
Version: 1:5.2.0-1
Severity: normal

Recently I noticed that "aptitude safe-upgrade" would hold back the
libreoffice packages, and so I tested "apt -s full-upgrade" which wanted
to remove libreoffice-gtk.

Given this information it was not too difficult to select
libreoffice-gtk2 in the aptitude TUI, but it seems to me that a
transitional package is in order here to pull in libreoffice-gtk2.  As
long as no packages on the system depend on libreoffice-gtk, apt's
default action is to remove it and _not_ install libreoffice-gtk2.
