Package: gnome-desktop-environment
Version: 1:2.20.2.1
Severity: normal
AFAICT, gnome-desktop-environment depends on libgnome2-perl for no
reason. This package contains no actual data, and therefore it cannot
be a necessary dependency. I also don't see dependencies on the
corresponding python packages, so it cannot be for developers.
Therefore, I would request that you please remove this dependency on
libgnome2-perl.

I think the changelog is enough documentation for people chasing
non-trivial information and it has a pointer to a Debian bug.
