The scintilla library comes bundled with geany. Is it possible to
unbundle it?

Geany supports gtk3. Could you build with that?

Perhaps rewrite this as:

Geany is a small and fast Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that
only has a few dependencies on other packages and is as independent as
possible from special desktop environments like KDE or GNOME.

> Geany only requires the GTK2 runtime libraries.

I think we should not mention this in the description, especially if we
are building with gtk3.

What is (full list) ?

LGTM otherwise, thanks!
