libgtksourceview2 does not build

[uni-dos]

Adding the %configure_no_runstatedir fixes the initial step, however, there is a -Wincompatible-pointer-types error that occurs. There are also warnings about deprecated functions and macros but those are not preventing it from compiling.

GCC 14 turned that from a warning into an error; libgtksourceview2 will have to be patched for it. Fedora carries several patches for this library, as well as using 2.11 instead of 2.10. That might be a bit of a project, though. At least one of those patches does fix a pointer type issue.

As far as I can tell, nothing in the repository uses this package anymore. Fedora still packages it, but I don't know what uses it; Arch appears to not have it packaged at this point. I wonder if we can deprecate it.

[uni-dos]

There must have been a gtk2 app that used it at one point. It must have been rewritten to gtk3 and used a newer gtksourceview version. Do we have to make sure that this is indeed needed in order to avoid breaking something?

[EbonJaeger]

I ripgrep'ed over the package repository on my system looking for libgtksourceview, and no other package appears to want it this version of it.

[uni-dos]

So, it seems safe to deprecate.
