Bug#438339: bug-buddy complains about missing "gnome-desktop", but that doesn't exist

Package: bug-buddy
Version: 2.18.1-2
Severity: normal

bug-buddy runs for me when another application (yelp) crashes, but complains:

"Bug Buddy was unable to retrieve information regarding the version of
GNOME you are running. This is most likely due to a missing
installation of gnome-desktop."

bug-buddy then stops running. What is "gnome-desktop"? There seems to
be no package of this name. Could bug-buddy Suggest or Depend on
whatever is needed? Also, why does it stop running? I'd be happy to
tell it the version of the program that crashed!
