Bug#370090: gnome-control-center: uninstallable because of hard-coded dep on xlibs

Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.12.3-2
Severity: grave

The gnome-control-center package is now uninstallable in unstable, 
because it has a hard-coded dependency on xlibs which is a legacy 
package that has been dropped with x11r7.  According to the changelog, 
this dependency was added to ensure xkb data files were available on the 
system, fixing bug #253287.  These files are now owned by the xkb-data 
package instead, so this is probably the package you need to depend on 
now for etch.

Thanks,
