Hi Francois,

I wasn't going that far [as that tends to be quite complicated
technically].

I just proposed that our OPAM workflow should support for packages to
specify versioned dependencies on depext stuff, so a package A can do
"gtk-3.0 >= 3.12" and some other package B can specify "gtk-3.0 >=
3.14".

Even if that only serves as documentation for now.

The `conf-gtk` approach seems not very well suited for this.
