well, in this way it automatically fixes this issues with the -dev package which
is not installable for every build where gtk-engines has been built already, so
in my opinion this is a good reason to increment PR.
Randomly laying around packages with broken dependencies have quite more
potential to confuse people than incremented PR most users do not care about much.

Greetings

Florian
