Re-tested Qlipper.

It is seriously broken, not applicable for regular use, and definitely not
worthy of "depends". It is not even release ready.

My earlier "oops" was due to the fact that I had both Clipman and Qlipper (in
no-PSE mode) running then. It was really Clipman who is running well, and
Qlipper was just piggy-backing Clipman. :)

I did an extensive testing for every other setting of "PSE", and for each
setting looked at Qlipper's behavior for 10 different gtk and qt applications.

So I sustain my initial proposition that Qlipper be dropped completely from
dependency list. (my earlier position was to move it from "depends" to
"suggest", but after re-vitnessing its state, I think even suggests will be too
much for it. It should be totally thrown away until it becomes tenable.) I will
prepare a detailed usability report and post to the project page at Github.

Thanks and regards.
