I can't remove GTK2 from my system, because parts of GNOME still require it.
During Wayland session XWayland is running all the time. I don't know if it is related or not, but maybe if we get rid of GTK2 dependencies, XWayland will not be needed anymore?
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with GNOME PPA (3.20) and I really want to remove GTK2 from my system.
ProblemType: Bug
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04
Package: gnome-session-wayland 3.20.0-2ubuntu1~xenial1 [origin: LP-PPA-gnome3-team-gnome3-staging]
ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-22.40-generic 4.4.8
Uname: Linux 4.4.0-22-generic x86_64
ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2
Architecture: amd64
CurrentDesktop: GNOME
Date: Thu May 26 09:37:34 2016
InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-05-16 (9 days ago)
InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160421)
SourcePackage: gnome-session
UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) |
Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 still requires gtk2
-------------------------------------------------------
sudo apt remove libgtk2.0-0
firefox* gnome-session-canberra* gnome-themes-standard* gtk2-engines-pixbuf*
ibus-gtk* libcanberra-gtk-module* libcanberra-gtk0* libgail-common*
libgail18* libgtk2.0-0* libgtk2.0-bin* libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2*
ubuntu-gnome-default-settings* ubuntu-gnome-desktop
Proposal for 17.10
-------------------------
1. Don't have webkit2 recommend the gtk2 support.
2. Split the gtk2 part of gnome-accessibility-themes to a separate package.
3. Split the gtk2 part of light-themes to a separate package.
4. Have either the Ubuntu metapackages (or gtk3 directly) depend on the gtk3 part of gnome-accessibility-themes
5. Look into moving these recommends and depends from the Ubuntu metapackages to libgtk2.0-0
a. gnome-themes-standard (and gnome-accessibility-themes-gtk2)
b. light-themes-gtk2
c. ibus-gtk
6. Look into having moving gnome-session-canberra and libcanberra-gtk-module's dependency on libcanberra-gtk0 (the gtk2 support) to libgtk2.0-0
7. That only leaves Firefox which the Ubuntu metapackages recommend. Firefox probably has a gtk2 dependency for Flash support.

Note

As 17.04 was released, it gained one new gtk2 package. gnome-software and software-properties-gtk recommend libgtk2-perl for debconf support.

d. IN PROGRESS: ibus-gtk
4. Investigate whether gnome-session-canberra needs to depend on libcanberra-gtk-module. If so, investigate applying the hack from #3 to libcanberra-gtk-module
5. Disable Flash in Thunderbird?
6. Move Firefox plugin support (for Flash) to a separate binary package that firefox will recommend, at least until the Flash packages depend on the new binary package.
7. Prepare a debconf-gtk3 backend and switch gnome-software and software-properties-gtk to use it.
8. IN PROGRESS: Demote kerneloops dependency on kerneloops-applet to Suggests.

Ubuntu 17.10 still requires gtk2
-------------------------------------------------------
sudo apt remove libgtk2.0-0
The following packages will be REMOVED:
firefox* gnome-session-canberra* gtk2-engines-murrine* ibus-gtk* kerneloops-applet* libcanberra-gtk-module* libcanberra-gtk0* libgail-common* libgail18* libgtk2-perl* libgtk2.0-0* libgtk2.0-bin* light-themes* thunderbird* thunderbird-gnome-support* thunderbird-locale-en* thunderbird-locale-en-us* ubuntu-artwork* ubuntu-desktop*
Proposal for 18.04
-------------------------
1. DONE: Don't have webkit2 recommend the gtk2 support.
2. NOT NEEDED: Split the gtk2 part of light-themes to a separate package.
3. Use a dh_shlibdeps hack to drop the libgtk2.0-0 dependency from these GTK2 addons:
a. DONE: gnome-themes-standard
b. IN PROGRESS: gtk2-engines-murrine
c. DONE: gtk2-engines-pixbuf
d. IN PROGRESS: ibus-gtk
4. Investigate whether gnome-session-canberra needs to depend on libcanberra-gtk-module. If so, investigate applying the hack from #3 to libcanberra-gtk-module
