Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.6.6-4
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Steps to reproduce:
* Run "apt-get install network-manager-gnome"
What I would expect to see:
Package is installed and available for me to use.
What I actually see:
The following packages will be REMOVED
gnome gnome-desktop-environment gnome-network-admin
The following NEW packages will be installed
network-manager-gnome
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 3 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
Unfortunately, I found this out the hard way.
I upgraded my system using the standard GNOME GUI interface, and when I
restarted I had no network connection. There was no network applet to select my
wireless network from, and none available for me to add to my panel.
I was unable to install the package because I had no network connection, and
network-manager provides no other usable controls. Unfortunately, I lost three
hours teaching myself wpa_supplicant so that I could get my conection back.

Because what you describe is not a bug in network-manager-gnome, and gnome is
not removed due to a bug in network-manager-gnome.
The issue has come up, since the gnome-network-admin package has added a
Conflicts: network-manager-gnome, which I can't do anything about in the
network-manager-gnome package.
So closing again.
