Package: gnome-core
Version: 1:2.28+3
Severity: normal
Hi,
if you install in a fresh Debian Gnu/Linux Squeeze (minimal system)
"gnome-core", apt-get pulls "evolution-data-server". In my opionion this is
not necessary.
Example: If you install a "Standard Desktop System" and you want to remove
Evolution, then apt-get wants to remove the whole gnome desktop environment.
The dependency from "evolution-data-server" might be the reason. gnome-core
does not seem to be dependant from "evolution-data-server". See below.
I was not able to find the dependant subpackage which pulls
"evolution-data-server" into the system so i reported this bug at "gnome-core".
Thank you for your very impressive work :)
Best Regards
Georg Gast

I think that's a good explanation on why this is not really a bug. The OP was
just confused.
Closing.
