i have a simple question which i already reported about gnome metapackage
and gnome-core. Why a simple removal of a text editor gedit or gnome-music
should ruin a fresh installation of Debian Jessie? I mean after all is that
a "marketing" strategy by promoting a "gnome-ish" application or a couple
applications over others? I just want to use rhythmbox and remove
gnome-music without destoying gnome desktop.

Mark affected packages as manually installed.
