thumbnailer: Remove unused GTK+ dependency (2.25 KB, patch)

Description Philip Withnall 2013-10-11 12:20:37 UTC 
If I do the following:
 $ ssh -X some-hostname
 $ totem-video-thumbnailer ~/Videos/something.mpg foo.png
I get:
    ** (totem-video-thumbnailer:3597): WARNING **: Could not open X display
    Unable to init server
    couldn't parse command-line options: Cannot open display: 

This feels like something which should work.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2013-10-11 12:42:02 UTC 
That'd be the culprit:
g_option_context_add_group (context, gtk_get_option_group (TRUE));

Seeing as we don't have the "show the image for debug" code, we can remove that, the GTK+ include and the GTK+ linking.
