[Bug 1654348] [NEW] Recommend gnome-maps again

 

Public bug reported:

Impact
======
The original release of Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 includes GNOME Maps.
Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.1 does not include GNOME Maps because it wasn't working due to a service provider change (LP: #1602035). Since GNOME Maps has been working again for months, there's no reason not to restore GNOME Maps to Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.2

Because of how metapackages work in Ubuntu, those who installed the
original 16.04 still have gnome-maps installed but those who installed
16.04.1 don't. This update should make things more consistent by having
gnome-maps installed by default for everyone using Ubuntu GNOME 16.04,
no matter when they installed it.

Test Case
=========
Option 1:
Install Ubuntu GNOME 16.04.1. Upgrade ubuntu-gnome-desktop. Is gnome-maps installed?

Option 2:
Upgrade ubuntu-gnome-desktop. Is gnome-maps recommended by ubuntu-gnome-desktop.

Option 3:
Check the daily builds to see if gnome-maps is included. Wait at least 24 hours after this update is accepted into xenial-proposed:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/xenial/daily-live/current/xenial-desktop-amd64.manifest

Regression Potential
====================
None. The only regression is if someone uninstalled gnome-maps because they didn't like it.

Other Info
==========
Because the gnome-maps issue was resolved before 16.10 was released, gnome-maps is already a recommends there and in 17.04 Alpha too.
