Package: gnome-desktop-environment
Version: 1:2.26+0
Severity: normal
gnome-desktop-environment Depends on gnome-user-share, which pulls in
apache and a pile of Apache dependencies. Ick.
(For some reason apache also pulls in a libaprutil1-dbd-* package, mysql by
default. Double ick.)
Please consider moving gnome-user-share to the gnome metapackage rather
than gnome-desktop-environment. Alternatively,
gnome-desktop-environment could recommend gnome-user-share, or
gnome-user-share could function without apache (perhaps in that
circumstance only supporting sharing via bluetooth).
