I fail to see how this makes sense.
Any fix for swt-gtk should also include fixing the other RC bug #879170,
and that would keep webkitgtk in buster - removing webkitgtk from buster
without also removing libswt-webkit-gtk-3-jni is simply wrong.
An actual fix has to include either updating Eclipse or removing
Eclipse from buster.
