Bug#1102266: hedgewars: Depends on deprecated and unmaintained qt5-style-plugins

[Dmitry Shachnev]

Package: hedgewars
Version: 1.0.2-12

Dear Maintainer,

hedgewars depends on qt5-style-plugins binary package. That package is built
from qtstyleplugins repository, which has no upstream activity since 2017 [1].

Moreover, qt5-style-plugins is a metapackage which depends on some other
packages, and one of those packages (qt5-gtk2-platformtheme) depends on GTK 2
which reached its end of life in 2020 [2].

Please remove that dependency completely (preferred), or at least depend on
more specific packages instead of the metapackage.

Note: in order to make a Qt application look native in GTK environments, the
recommended way is to port to Qt >= 6.6 which has an improved built-in GTK
theme.
