I'm surprised to hear that gnome-core requires gnash. It's certainly not
the case on Lenny:
$ apt-cache depends gnome-core
gnome-core
Depends: gnome-control-center
Depends: eog
Depends: gedit
Depends: gnome-applets
Depends: gnome-icon-theme
Depends: gnome-menus
Depends: gnome-panel
Depends: gnome-session
Depends: gnome-settings-daemon
Depends: gnome-terminal
|Depends: metacity
Depends: compiz-gnome
Depends: nautilus
|Depends: rarian-compat
Depends: scrollkeeper
rarian-compat
Depends: yelp
Suggests: gnome-desktop-environment
