For what it's worth.... Short-term "fixing" gnome-desktop-sharp2 to not depend on gtkhtml is as easy as dropping the bindings which is unused. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797567#19 (This would mean you still block the gnome-desktop removal though, see #721079.) If you're aiming at a more complete fix, then getting rid of the gnome-desktop dependency would be useful. I've quickly looked into gnome-do sources and it seems the only dependency is on using the thumbnails functionality (but I might have missed something). See ./Do.Platform.Linux/src/Do.Universe/Desktop.cs which exposes a few Thumbnail* functions. The only caller of these seems to be in ./Do.Platform.Linux/src/Do.Universe/FileItem.cs which only calls ThumbnailPathForUri. The equivalent code for using glib/gio to look up the path for the thumbnail should look something like this: GLib.File fi = GLib.FileFactory.NewForUri(fileUri); GLib.FileInfo info = fi.QueryInfo("thumbnail::path", GLib.FileQueryInfoFlags.None, null); string thumbnailPath = info.GetAttributeByteString("thumbnail::path"); You might want to revamp the code here a bit further though and fully leverage the GIcon parts provided by GLib/GIO.
