Can you share details? Those are big/old gtk packages. And when you mean
binaries removed you mean for s390x only or for all?

dplyr 0.5.0 is ridiculously outdated that it is (IMHO) probably not worth
looking at. That should have become 0.6.* and 0.7.* a few times over.
For what it is worth all my systems do of course have current dplyr, but I
install that directly from CRAN into /usr/local.
