Bug#333224: gnome-terminal-data can't be removed, when gconf2 is allready removed

[Alexander Schmehl]

Package: gnome-terminal-data
Version: 2.10.0-2
Severity: normal


Hi!

While remastering (and therefore shrinking) a chroot for a live system I
couldn' remove gnome-terminal-data, since gconftool-2 from the package
gconf2 was missing (since I allready removed that):
