As announced [1], we do not intend to release Debian 10 "Buster" with
the old libgnome (and related) libraries. These libraries have been
deprecated and unmaintained for several years.
libgtk2-sourceview2-perl depends on gtksourceview2 which has not had a
new release since 2010.
libgtk2-sourceview2-perl has one reverse dependency in Debian: xacobeo
Please port your package to GTK3 and gtksourceview3 and related
maintained libraries. Otherwise, please consider requesting that your
package be removed from Debian to help us complete this goal.
