It is fine if users upgrading have both the -gtk and -qt interfaces. We are considering removing the .desktop file for the -gtk interface in Precise so that users are not confused by two "System testing" applications in the menus.

As for your concern to stay with the -gtk interface for GNOME, the -qt interface is more than just a skin. Instead, it is a significant improvement on the user experience to incite more users to participate in the Ubuntu Friendly programme. The -qt interface is where we're going and the -gtk interface will likely be completely removed in P+1, ie replaced with a transitional empty package.

Do you think it would be possible to have checkbox-qt on the desktop image in time for Beta Freeze tomorrow?
