This bug was intentionally re-introduced by version ‘1:2.28+3’
(according to ‘debian/changelog’), causing GNOME to pull in Mono
again. As described in #484121 and #491820, that makes this bug report
‘important’ severity.

To allow GNOME to be installed without Mono, the following patch
re-introduces the alternative dependency on ‘gnote’. I don't know
whether this should be a versioned dependency.
