Public bug reported:
Trying to install nvidia-prime on an ubuntu-gnome system tries to pull
in a bunch of unity stuff, because it lists as dependencies:
Depends: lightdm (>= 1.9.1) | gdm | kdm | sddm, bbswitch-dkms, pciutils,
lsb-release, lsb-base (>= 4.1+Debian11ubuntu7)
It should depend on gdm3 in addition, since gdm is a transitional
package.
