Hello Debian Xfce maintainers! It looks like the 'task-xfce-desktop' package depends on the 'network-manager-gnome' one.
Unfortunately, currently there's an excessive dependency problem with 'network-manager-gnome' (it recommends 'gnome-bluetooth', which since recently pulls GNOME3 core components, see the bug discussion): http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714803 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714803#10 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714803#73 IMHO, NetworkManager Applet is a necessary component for Xfce (still light-weight) desktop, so I suggest to support my proposal (to lower the 'gnome-bluetooth' dependency priority to "Suggests" for 'network-manager-gnome'), and thus save Debian users from installing hundreds of megabytes of unused packages. ---- Best wishes, Bob
