- Moved build dependencies to native.
- Most of those added in 4.2.1 update are only transitive.
- Switched to GTK 3.
- The GNOME 2 dependencies can me removed as they are not used.
- Except for GTKHtml since WebKit2-based editor is not implemented.
- Python is not needed either.
- D-Bus functionality requires a patch to build
- gsf was replaced by minizip – https://github.com/crosswire/xiphos/pull/1003
This is supposedly not used since 4.1.0 according to its release notes
https://github.com/crosswire/xiphos/releases/tag/4.1.0
but I do not see a commit removing it and lucene is still mentioned
throughout the interface.
But there is no closure change.

Since the last time I ran this script, the Repology API changed, so I had to
adapt the script used in the previous PR. The new API should be more robust, so
overall this is a positive (no more grepping the error messages for our relevant
data but just a nice json structure).
Here's the new script I used:
```sh
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq -r '.[] | select(.type == "homepage_permanent_https_redirect") | .data | "s@\(.url)@\(.target)@"' \
| sort | uniq | tee script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
I will also add this script to `maintainers/scripts`.
This avoids the potential conflict between autoconf flags and the waf
flags. There is some overlap between the two but waf errors when it
doesn’t recognize the flag.
