Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.26+0
Severity: serious
Even if tomboy and gnote are optional in Recommends tomboy (and 50MB
mono)
are installed by
apt-get. This is very unfortunate, The user should have the
choice to avoid installing mono (and .NET, C# related) stuff when
installing gnome!
This is mainly due to the potential problems with mono as free software
in the future.
