I have to agree with Thomas Maass: there are too many 'Recommended'
dependencies for network-manager-gnome. At least you should move
`gnome-bluetooth` from 'Recommends' to 'Suggests'.
Not all users tend to change the default apt's behavior and use
`--no-install-recommends` option. But I think there are a lot more people who
have no bluetooth adapter at all. For example, among my three laptops only one
has this feature. Would it be useful to me to download and install more than
150MB of libraries that I will never ever use? And what about those who (still)
use Xfce/Gtk2?
Also there's other bad dependency chain:
network-manager-gnome => libgtk-3-0 -> libcolord1 -> colord -> libsane -> [
gphoto and other scanner stuff ].
So, the best way to install network manager applet if you aren't using Gnome3
as you desktop environment is:
# apt-get install network-manager-gnome gnome-bluetooth- colord-
