Hi,

next step here is to remove this package from sid,
as it blocks the removal of libgtk2-perl (#912860).

intrigeri at debian.org:
> This package has only 4 reverse-dependencies

Thankfully, no new reverse-dependency has appeared since then :)

>  - libgtk2-gladexml-simple-perl: filed #904551 to avoid shipping it in Buster

I've requested its removal: #932228

>  - gresolver: not in testing (depends on obsolete libgnome)

Removed from sid already:
https://tracker.debian.org/news/1008752/removed-005-6-from-unstable/

>  - gtkorphan: filed a bug to request removing the dependency

That's #904562. The package was orphaned more than a year ago,
no reply to my bugs on the BTS ⇒ will request removal right away.

>  - macchanger-gtk: not in testing, filed a bug to request removing the
>    dependency anyway

I've made that bug (#904559) RC and have sent one last ping to the
maintainer; if I still get no reply, I'll go through whatever process
is needed in order to request the removal.

Cheers,
