I guess you are right; as written the scriptlets don't require us to add
those requires, and we are probably fine as long as gtk2 is still
ubiquitous. But if you think of the long-term future, where there might
be a gtk2-less install, we'll eventually make some adjustment here, e.g.
by shipping gtk-update-icon-cache with gtk3 instead of gtk2.
