"Apt install qubes-gpg-split" wants to pull in 120 packages. Even with
--no-install-recommends, it's still 23 packages including aspell,
emacsen-common, a couple gstreamer libs, zenity, etc. Why are these
required for gpg-split, and is there a way to trim them down further?

iMost of it is zenity, which is a dependency and pulls in libwebkit2gtk, and *that*
pulls in most of the rest.
There's an open bug about the "stupid" zenity dependencies.
