Bug#1006486: gnome metapackage should recommend gnome-initial-setup



Control: reassign -1 gnome 1:42+7
Control: retitle -1 gnome metapackage should recommend gnome-initial-setup
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-gtk-gnome@lists.debian.org

As discussed on the [tasksel salsa repo][1] I'm reassigning this bug to the meta-gnome3 package.

I believe that gnome-initial-setup should be pulled in by the gnome metapackage and not gnome-core as it is not a core component of the DE (Debian hasn't shipped it for a while and almost nobody complained), and I believe that it should be a recommends, and not a depends, as users might want to remove the package after the first run.

Please see the description of the original bug report to understand why I think that this package should be pulled into new installations in the first place.
