>Description:
There are two issues I've found with the gedit and gedit3 packages:

- The make file for both doesn't mark them as conflicting packages,
though they both install bin/gedit and bin/gnome-text-editor.
- Since the update to the 3.14 series, gedit3 doesn't take into
account that in order to be usable, it really needs to have an
explicit dependency marked on graphics/adwaita-icon-theme, otherwise
various icons will be missing, and as this new version has done away
with the traditional menu system, it's a bit crippled without these
icons. Without that package installed, I'm presented with various
unlabelled buttons and can't even see the close icon on tabs.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install gedit3 and try to use it as-is. (Install gedit3 when you
already have gedit and watch the latter disappear.)
>Fix:
(Fixes noted above.)
