Package: task-gnome-desktop
Version: 3.63
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
Hello maintainers of task-gnome-desktop,
Synaptic used to be recommended by task-gnome-desktop (and other
task-*-desktop), until it was removed from Buster (#889897), due to it
not functionning correctly under Wayland.
Under GNOME, users have been left with gnome-software to install
packages, but gnome-software only shows packages shipping AppStream
metadata, thus most packages don't show up there, such as mat2,
nautilus-wipe, sm and many more.
Installing packages not available in gnome-software nowadays requires
the use of a terminal, or gnome-packagekit, which is also not installed
by default.
Gnome-packagekit does the job and has a prettier interface, but its
developpment is much slower than synaptic's (regarding commits in the
last 2 years).
Shipping synaptic by default in Debian Bullseye with GNOME, XFCE, LXDE,
Mate and Cinnamon would be a great (re)improvement in user experience,
giving users more control without the need of mastering terminal usage.
Thank you very much,
gagz
