Hi all,

I think we've reached the point when we can remove the very old GTK2 package from the official repositories. I recently dropped the GTK2 version of LXDE, and there are only a few applications left that still depend on GTK2:

- alltray - amsynth - bless - calf - eq10q - gimp-nufraw - gkrellm - gpsim - gtk2fontsel - gtk-chtheme - hexchat - hexter - leafpad - mono-tools - nitrogen - nspluginwrapper - osdlyrics - parcellite - pidgin - sbxkb - trayer - xboard - xdialog - xlockmore

Most of these have no active development a long time ago. If no one has objections, I'll drop these packages to AUR in the next days if it's not possible to build them without GTK2.

Any opinion?

Please. Thanks for tackling this!
