and subject line Re: Bug#711322: Possible solution? (removing any gnome
dependency suggests many autoremoves)
has caused the Debian Bug report #711322,
regarding Removing any package part of "gnome" meta-package results in
dangerous "autoremove" apt-get suggestion
to be marked as done.
This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.
(NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what this
message is talking about, this may indicate a serious mail system
misconfiguration somewhere. Please contact [email protected]

Package: gnome
Version: 1:3.4+7
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install debian jessie, gnome option.
2. Remove a package that is part of the meta-package "gnome", via sudo
apt-get purge, i.e.: "tomboy" (if you're a mono hater) or "rhythmbox" (if
you're a mono lover?).
3. Use apt-get again, and you will be told that "autoremove" can get rid of
lots of useless packages.
4. Use apt-get autoremove.
Current results:
If you reboot the computer, it won't boot into a GUI again (it will tell
you that the system is broken and that you should contact your system
administrator).
Expected results:
Not break anything? (Or don't suggest autoremove in the first place)

I'm closing this bug since this was apparently fixed when
https://bugs.debian.org/719951 was fixed.
Thank you,
