Please excuse me if it's a false report, but for me, it caused a serious problem. Some
apps (including firefox) failed to start, dropping error messages about
unresolved symbols (g_assert_warning and g_option_context_new, as I remember; libglib related stuff).
Reverting to libgtk2.0-0 in the testing branch solved the issue. (I'm
using unstable)
However, the cross-dependencies are still there in the testing
distribution.
