Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome

there is a confusion what can be installed with 
- gnome -> applications -> add/remove
- system -> synaptic
- apt-get in terminal

for a user, especially the two first options are difficult to understand
why is rdiff-backup not an application and must be installed with synaptic? 
(other examples possible).

is it possible to reduce this confusion to allow a drop back from add/remove to 
synaptic if the package is not found
or (not so desirable) communicate the difference when things are one place or 
the other.

thank you for a good system - i hope to help to improve it
