I have the same problem here, with GTK2 and pidgin-2.6.6-no-gtk.

I had:

host:
  \- pidgin
       \- GTK2

With pidgin 2.7.0, there is no no-gtk version any more, so I remove the
dependency in pidgin.xml and I have the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
ERROR   : Command '"%SOFTWARE%\pidgin\2.6.6\remove.cmd"" was unsuccessful.|Le chemin d'acc<E8>s sp<E9>cifi<E9> est introuvable.|
ERROR   : Exit code returned non-successful value: -1|Package: Pidgin.|Command:|"%SOFTWARE%\pidgin\2.6.6\remove.cmd"
ERROR   : Could not process (remove) Pidgin.|Package still installed.
ERROR   : Removal of depending packages for 'GNOME Tool Kit' (gtk2) failed. Removal of depending package 'Pidgin' (pidgin) failed
ERROR   : Failed to remove package which depends on 'GNOME Tool Kit (gtk2), skipping removal.|You might use the /force flag to force removal but remember that the package depending on this on
ERROR   : Could not process (remove) GNOME Tool Kit.|Package still installed.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

My problem is that pidgin 2.6.6 is not available anymore since I
distribute 2.7.0.

Regards.
