I filed the following bug ...
    #1084916 - libgtk-4-1 should not recommend (CUPS v3) cpdb-backend-cups:
        https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1084916

Until it is fixed, please try the following temporary workaround:
        # apt-mark hold libcupsfilters2-common
        # apt install gnome-core
        # apt-mark unhold libcupsfilters2-common
