You are going to file a bug against “gnome”, which is a metapackage. It
|
||
means it is empty except for its dependencies, which are here to provide
|
||
a full-fledged GNOME desktop for Debian.
|
||
|
||
Using this package to report a bug is appropriate if:
|
||
* You have noticed a bug in the GNOME desktop but you don’t know which
|
||
actual package it comes from.
|
||
* You believe there is a genuine mistake in dependencies, like
|
||
forgetting to add a dependency that is needed for a regular GNOME
|
||
desktop, or to remove one that is no longer appropriate.
|
||
|
||
If you don’t like one of the packages that are depended upon and prefer
|
||
that we drop the dependency or depend on another one that is not related
|
||
to GNOME, please don’t bother filing the bug. Metapackages are not a
|
||
supermarket. We try to make a selection that is suitable for most
|
||
people; if you don’t like it, you are welcome to make your own.
