Public bug reported: Ubuntu gedit have additional dependences that differs from GNOME package. Ubuntu gedit have plugin named "Zeitgeist dataprovider" not described in GNOME Project http://projects.gnome.org/gedit/plugins.html. Upon click on About button link offers URL on GNOME Project homepage. Problem with this new dependency is that triggers zeitgeist-deamon and zeitgeist-fts processes under GNOME Classic session and does not stop this processes when gnome process ends. This dependencies also triggers this processes in Xubuntu and Lubuntu distributions and its not possible to install gedit without Zeitgeist dataprovider plugin. (gedit is my text editor of choice under all DE) Fedora (17 Alpha) based gedit does not have this zeitgeist plugin.
