[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#719967: network-manager-gnome: wants to install tons of unnecesary stuff

[Hans-J. Ullrich]

Hello Michael, 

first of all: Yes, you can merge this bugreport with #714803 and/or #714337. 
Both bugreports seem to touch my problem, too.

What I meant is the following. I have a KDE installed and no unnecessary libs 
yet. So I just want to add nm-gnome only, nothing else. But please take a 
look:

The same result I get, when using aptitude instead of apt. You also see, there 
is brasero within. 

As I said: I just want to use nm-gnome (and only the very necessary libs, of 
course), but nothing else.

Hope this makes things a little bit more clear and helps.


Best regards

Hans
