Version: 2.2.27-2
Severity: important

Hello,

Having librsvg2-bin in the build-dependencies prevent the package to
build on some architecture (librsvg only builds on architecutres where
rust is ported to)

Could you please drop librsvg2-bin from the build-dependencies?

The BD was added in the following commit:

commit 90e4beaa8cb065d5964681b8b1dc72c84eeb5f9e

    build gnupg-module-overview.png and ship it

    Upstream uses imagemagick for conversion of svg to png, and
    imagemagick itself appears to delegate to  rsvg-convert

But what I see is that the .png file is not rebuilt during the build of
the package and I don't know if imagemagick is still using rsvg-convert
anyway, so, is it really necessary to have that BD?

Without it, gnupg builds fine on kfreebsd

Kind regards,
Laurent Bigonville
