I'm not sure I follow why this is necessary.  Someone who is upgrading
is unlikely to accidentally leave n-m-g behind.  But I don't think I
have an objection if this is what the gnome-core maintainers want to
do.

Your patch is against something in svn ?  Does that mean that the
downgrade to Recommends has been committed ?  Will it be uploaded
soon ?

Thanks,
Ian.
