[Bug 1232301] Re: Removing Unity also removes ubuntu-desktop

 

You claim that I can uninstall Unity, but when I attempt to do so, it
also removes ubuntu-desktop.

How am I supposed to uninstall Unity?
Isn't it possible to make the ubuntu-desktop package recommend instead of depend on Unity?

I don't want this Unity on my system.
