pitivi pulls qt5-base and qtchooser

Hi all,

I wanted to install Pitivi (http://www.pitivi.org/) , which is supposed to be GNOME-GTK only application and I noticed it pulls qt5-base and qtchooser.
Would you know if there are some "ingnore" option I can add in order to avoid those Qt stuff?

Pitivi supposed to be 100% GTK: http://jeff.ecchi.ca/blog/2015/11/19/pi … nt-suisse/

Now 100% GTK, with new horizons

Nothing wrong with Qt, It's just I managed to stay with a GTK-only system (That's why I didn't install Skype nor VLC...) and I'd rather stay as is :-)

The full output:

$ sudo pacman -S community/pitivi

Re: pitivi pulls qt5-base and qtchooser

See https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/41744. There is a python-matplotlib-noqt package in AUR.
