Bug#871535: librsvg: Make source package bootstrappable

Source: librsvg
Version: 2.40.18-1
Severity: wishlist

Even after bootstrapping gtk+3.0 using the nocheck build profile,
there's still a build dependency cycle that makes libgtk-3-dev
uninstallable:

libgtk-3-dev Depends on libgtk-3-0
libgtk-3-0 Depends on adwaita-icon-theme
adwaita-icon-theme Depends on librsvg2-common
librsvg Build-Depends on libgtk-3-dev

It would be nice if there were a bootstrapping build profile provided
in src:librsvg to break this cycle.  (Possibly, src:libgsf would also
need to have a bootstrapping build profile, since libgsf BD
libgtk2.0-dev Dep libgtk2.0-0 Dep gnome-icon-theme |
adwaita-icon-theme and gnome-icon-theme also Depends on
librsvg2-common.)
