It mixes up diffent things to one and just introduces new |

problems instead of solving anything. I could live with that, |
| 10 |
if it's for supporting different ABIs, but it obviously isn't. |

gtk1 and gtk2 are completely different packages, they're not |
| 13 |
compatible. So why should they be one package ? Just because |
| 14 |
they share some ideas and the name ?! |

For example, there are lots of packages requiring gtk1, other |
| 17 |
gtk2. As long as dependencies don't cope the slot cleanly, |
| 18 |
slotting is utterly useless. |
