Subject: [PATCH] Drop task-gnome-desktop Recommends already handled by gnome
- Let's let the gnome metapackage recommend packages instead of
task-gnome-desktop.
- Drop Synaptic since it doesn't work in Wayland. See bug 8183366.
(Alternatives are gnome-software which is already installed, or
gnome-packagekit, or switch to the GNOME on Xorg session.)
- The 'gnome' metapackage intentionally installs specific
LibreOffice packages instead of the 'libreoffice' metapackage.
Closes: #878483
