Right, in Debian/Ubuntu, gnome-documents has a soft-dependency (recommends) on unoconv which has a soft dependency on all of libreoffice. In Debian & Ubuntu, "recommends" are installed by default. I could push a Ubuntu package that drops one of those recommends, but being able to open ODF formats is a nice feature. I have to admit that I don't really understand what unoconv does or what packages it actually needs. > Anyways they are including mostly repo versions of gnome (nautilus 3.4, > totem 3.4, shell 3.4, etc.). So nothing exciting for gonme fans, I guess. I disagree. For one, we already have GNOME Shell 3.5.4 and I expect that we'll be able to include GNOME Shell 3.6. Seb Bacher has explained multiple times on this very mailing list why Totem 3.6 won't be able to be included in the next Ubuntu release (dropped support for gstreamer-0.10). Nautilus, Totem, and whatever other 3.6 components that aren't included are a very easy install away from the GNOME3 PPA. The PPA is recommended in our release notes. Part of the reason for the Ubuntu GNOME Remix is to bring Ubuntu and GNOME closer together again and I believe that is happening.
