Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gwibber

Removed gwibber. Since gwibber-service starts unasked  three services removed 
it also.
It removes indicator-me too.
Expected is, gwibber-service can be removed without interference of whatever 
indicator*.

Gwibber is just another app which one may use or not, but indicators are 
essentials of Ubuntu-Desktop.
How come that just another app is allowed to remove indicator*, which is needed 
for another app e.g. Empathy?

Aside, ubuntuone-client and couchdb-bin were removed before, now when
attempting to reinstall indicator-me, those and related, already
removed, packages are about to be installed again. (screenshot)

Result, user runs in circle or has to abstain from indicator-me, while
keeping Empathy without showing online-status.

Conclusion, if gwibber-service leaves indicator-me alone, follow-up  behaviour 
as above don't occur.
Plus, either package doesn't mention the other one as dependency, although 
Synaptic says something else.
