Well, would it be possible to have it (or the metapackage gnome)
recommending or suggesting gnome-games, even if upstream includes it on
their official releases?

In fact, I would file this wishlist bug on the metapackage gnome, but then
I discovered that it was gnome-desktop-environment that depended on
gnome-games.

And what about moving the Depends from gnome-desktop-environment to gnome
instead (as it seems to be the case with gnome-office)? Would that be
possible?


Thanks for your work, Rogério Brito.
