Gnome and Evolution - time to change? #debian

🕜︎ - 2011-08-20

Isn't it time that gnome-core stops depending directly on Evolution?

Perhaps gnome-core could depend on something like 'mail-reader' instead - so I could have gnome-core installed with, say, Icedove, and remove Evolution?

Oh, I see that 'mail-reader' is also provided by various non-GUI programs, so that may not be the perfect fit for Gnome.

Maybe the GUI mail readers could provide 'gui-mail-reader', or something?
