[Bug 1754872] Re: apt install xubuntu-desktop does not resolve dependencies properly

 

Bug exists in Cosmic. Please fix dependencies.

Many users currently trying to avoid GNOMEs Hell and some of them will
choose Xfce.

But such dependency problems make bad reputation of Xfce. So they may
consider to switch to KDE or MATE.
