New issue by gt7-void on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/29578

Description:
Installing `mediainfo` pulls in a lot of gui stuff, but it contains a useful cli tool (`/bin/mediainfo`) which doesn't require any of that stuff.

I wonder if it makes sense to split the package in `mediainfo` and `mediainfo-gui` like other distros (e.g. https://packages.debian.org/sid/mediainfo-gui).

As an example, in my system `mediainfo` is the only package forcing me to have `libsecret` installed, which is precisely what breaks `{next,own}cloudclient` from working with `kwallet` without KDE, see
