If so then it needs a Requires(pre): gtk2 . I'll be looking at these cases
more carefully and try to get bugs filed against the appropiate packages.

I plan to look through all of the installs for errors. There is one segment
fault, that I am not sure of, but maybe that was caused by a broken previous
install or being installed out of order as well.

I don't suppose the Requires(pre) info is prominently displayed in the
packaging guidelines (especially the coreutils case)?
