What else deps on gtk+ 1.X?
The other, slightly nastier problem: Several packages allow one to build with either gtk+ or gtk2. In Core, we're building with gtk2, but these packages have to BuildRequire: gtk+-devel, which pulls in the rest of the gtk+ stuff, in order to compile. This is because the various auto* scripts pull in gtk+ macros. I *think* there are some packages still like this in Core; I know I've run into it in the last couple months, and have gotten used to pulling in gtk+ in order to build, then removing it, when I want to rebuild a package.
Is this just pkg-config stuff? That type of stuff can be fixed and submitted upstream pretty easily. If it's other auto* problems, I'd have to see it to know how easy it would be. In any case, if you send me a few packages to look at, I'll make a start on doing something productive about it.
