Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.6-2 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 7.2
I am not sure against which package this bug should be reported, network-manager or policykit. Please reassign if necessary. Upgrading network-manager from 0.6.6-2 to 0.7.0-1 causes most of Gnome to be installed: $ apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages have been kept back: network-manager 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. $ apt-get dist-upgrade Reading package lists...

This happens even without having a Gnome desktop (since I am using KDE). I see in this a serious violation of the policy, since "The Recommends field should list packages that would be found together with this one", which in turn means recommends must not contain packages that are not found together. And Gnome is usually not found on KDE desktops.
