Maybe better to
4) Ask for the removal of gnome-admin from the archive and have
gnome-utils Replace and Conflict with gnome-admin. gnome-admin
doesn't seem to be in Gnome 1.4 and it hasn't been upgraded from
1.0.3 (which is why I'd guess they moved some useful things to
gnome-utils).
Actually unless anyone objects I'm going to file a bug with
ftp.debian.org to have gnome-admin removed.
