I don't know about this, if we're giving the option for applications to use two variants at once then they should be able to do it. If we can only handle one gdk-pixbuf, I think we should have a gdk-pixbuf that has SVG support by default. That said, I don't know where we'd start looking at the dependency graph for all packages on Guix that indirectly require GTK and make sure they don't use gdk-pixbuf directly. > Ludo’. Jookia.
