Markus,

I think this was a very minor change we did in the Ubuntu package, and 
probably not push in the git. However, i still think that it would be 
good to split. Most people don't want to install all gtk2 libs and 
dependencies on their server when they only need command line tools.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Alan
