Because mono is in debian main. It qualifies to be a part of Debian once it complies with DFSG. > The whole logic of making gnome dependent on mono is thoroughly perverse. tomboy is an official gnome module and it is upto the maintainers of gnome to decide what goes into default. Even though I personally does not want to use mono, from debian's perspective, there is nothing stopping to ship a software in debian main in default install -- especially if it is an upstream selection, like this case.
