Public bug reported:
Many users use Thunderbird, and therefore uninstal Evolution.
If a user uninstals all evolution-... packages thinking this will only
uninstals Evolution, he will destroy his system because the following
evolution-packages :
- evolution-common
- evolution-documentation-..
- evolution-data-server-common
- evolution-data-server
are used by other Gnome applications. (according to
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+question/91644 )
So I suggest to rename them gnome-common-something... instead of
evolution-something...
And to split evolution-documentation into evolution-documentation
(specific to evolution only) + gnome-common-something...-documentation
I know this may happen very rarely, and that the system warns it will
uninstal other packages, but this is an unlogical situation that i think
can be quickly and easily solved.
my 2 cents
