  Hi,
  
  I'm doing an upgrade test in a vm from Xubuntu 10.04 (up-to-date) to
- 12.04 (today, 2912-03-14), and what update-manager proposes me is a bit
+ 12.04 (today, 2012-03-14), and what update-manager proposes me is a bit
  messy: 600+ new packages to install, including unity and gnome sessions,
  which obviously I don't want on Xubuntu (and the bandwidth waste...).
  
  (Hopefully apport will DTRT and attach the correct logs...)
  
  From a quick look at apt.log, the trigger for that seems to be:
  
  >      Installing indicator-applet as Recommande of indicator-messages
  
  But we already recommend a provider of 'indicator-renderer' in xubuntu-
  desktop:
  
  >  new important dependency: xfce4-indicator-plugin:amd64
  >  Installing xfce4-indicator-plugin as Recommande of xubuntu-desktop
  
  ... not sure why update-manager chooses to install *both* of them.
  
  Because of that, we have a nice cascading effect:
  
  >       Installing gnome-panel as Dépend of indicator-applet
  
  [...]
  
  >          Installing gnome-applets as Recommande of gnome-panel
  
  [...]
  
  >          Installing gnome-session as Recommande of gnome-panel
  
  [...]
  
  >            Installing unity as Recommande of gnome-session
  
  I guess you get the idea. ;-)
  Thanks.
