It is very horrible of a distro to remove easy access to essential libraries like GTK+ 1.2.x and libstdc++5.x, which are required by thousands of programs still used by Ubuntu users. It isn't hard to maintain two libraries, yet these two libraries cause more issues when missing than any other "unsupported" libraries.

Why is it so hard to have an optional package for these libraries?
