Package: gnome Version: 1:2.30+7 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
network-manager is a bit of a catastrophe when installed on servers: it just happily erases /etc/resolv.conf and leaves your system with no DNS at all. Meta-package 'gnome' pulling network-manager is a Bad Idea, as it might get installed on many systems that are not mobile, and for which it will break the network settings. (frankly, the list of outstanding bugs for network-manager should be enough to not install it, or at least ask the user for confirmation.) -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-vserver-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome depends on: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.27-2+squeeze1 Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon pn epiphany-extensions <none> (no description available) pn evolution-exchange | e <none> (no description available) ii evolution-plugins 2.30.3-5 standard plugins for Evolution ii evolution-webcal 2.28.1-1 webcal: URL handler for GNOME and ii gdm-themes 0.6.2 Themes for the GNOME Display Manag pn gedit-plugins <none> (no description available) pn gnome-codec-install <none> (no description available) pn gnome-desktop-environm <none> (no description available) pn gnome-games <none> (no description available) pn gnome-themes-extras <none> (no description available) pn gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg <none> (no description available) ii gstreamer0.10-plugins- 0.10.15-1 GStreamer plugins from the "ugly" ii libpam-gnome-keyring 2.30.3-5 PAM module to unlock the GNOME key ii rhythmbox-plugins 0.12.8-3 plugins for rhythmbox music player ii software-center 2.0.7debian7 Utility for browsing, installing, ii synaptic 0.70~pre1+b1 Graphical package manager pn system-config-printer <none> (no description available) pn tomboy | gnote <none> (no description available) pn totem-mozilla <none> (no description available) pn transmission-gtk <none> (no description available) Versions of packages gnome recommends: pn gdebi <none> (no description available) pn gnome-games-extra-data <none> (no description available) pn gnome-office <none> (no description available) pn liferea | evolution-rss | <none> (no description available) ii menu-xdg 0.5 freedesktop.org menu compliant win pn mozilla-plugin-gnash <none> (no description available) pn network-manager-gnome <none> (no description available) pn shotwell <none> (no description available) ii update-notifier 0.99.3debian8 Daemon which notifies about packag Versions of packages gnome suggests: pn gnome-dbg <none> (no description available) pn openoffice.org-evolution <none> (no description available) pn openoffice.org-gnome <none> (no description available) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
