Package: gnome-desktop-environment
Version: 1:2.10.1.1
Severity: minor
This package currently depends on gnomemeeting, which seems like rather a
niche tool, relatively unrelated to the business of providing a desktop
environment. It it actually true that without gnomemeeting,
the Gnome desktop environment would lack a significant amount of
functionality? If not, the dependency should probably be downgraded to
Recommends or even Suggests.
The current dependency is a problem both because it forces needless cruft
on the user's system (both gnomemeeting and its many dependancies),
and because it means that when gnomemeeting becomes uninstallable, (e.g.
now, see bug 318742), gnome-desktop-environment also becomes
uninstallable.

gnome-desktop-environment no longer depends on gnomemeeting (since it doesn't
even exist anymore). Closing.
Cheers,
