Package: gnome
Version: 1:3.0+7
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

The new version of gnome meta package depends on gnome-documents which
in ture depends on tracker.  Since tracker can produce an I/O intensive
background running, thereby slowing the computer a lot, it may not be
desirable to all GNOME users.  Furthermore, gnome-documents has also
many problems in daily use.  I just wondered if gnome-documents could
be recommended instead of being depended?

Thank you for your consideration.

Best,
HZ
