Hi,

I'd like to ask why gtk40 is listed as dependency for vte3. Although I
don't know much about BSD, I am quite familiar with Linux and its various
package management systems.

I'm aware there's no way xfce-terminal and mate-terminal, both depending on
vte3, to be able to use gtk4 library. On the other hand, current version of
GNOME is fully using gtk4, also thru vte3 for its terminal.

It's currently not a deal breaker or anything, but it would be nice to have
a leaner system. Is there a chance we can have the vte3 package split into
two different version?

Thank you,
Timothy Kenno Handojo
