Only problem I can see with including it is that now someone that installs it as a dependency, will now also get the GUI. For example kdevelop is a reverse dependency |

The GUI part should probably be split into its own package, like |

Could we pull in this patch to fix the localization installation location? It would be nice to not have them dumped straight into |

A couple more things, after thinking about it some more:
- Could a component, summary, and description be added for the new subpackage?
- The
-guisubpackage should have a runtime dependency oncppcheck - Stretch goal: It would be great if an AppStream metainfo file could be added for the GUI package so it can be found in GNOME Software and Discover.

Could this be moved to the bottom of the file? It makes everything easier to find.
