I guess GTK2 will not be supported after the next release any more (at
best).  As long as no RC bugs are filed against packages depending from
it, it seems fine to keep these in a clean shape.

Thanks for the clarification.  I'll leave this absolutely to you.
Given your explanation I do not think it is worth a detour via new
queue.  Thus I reverted my change to introduce the examples package.
I'll leave you the final decision and upload (where you can drop
the "Team upload" in changelog to silence lintian).

Thanks a lot
