Hi,

you can check with "equery d x11-libs/gtk+" if there is a package which
depends on this version. I expect there will be none, otherwise depclean
would not want to remove it.
If you remove it, you can run "revdep-rebuild" to see if any programs
have broken libs und rebuild them.

Regards
Norman
