Description-en: Vanilla GNOME metapackage
This package depends on the core GNOME packages with minimal Ubuntu
branding similar to what was offered by Ubuntu GNOME. Ubuntu GNOME
was an Ubuntu flavor that offered a mostly pure GNOME experience until
it was discontinued after the 17.04 release.
.
It is also used to help ensure proper upgrades, so it is recommended that
it not be removed.
