Bug Description
Impact
======
Users who have ubuntu-
Some people use gnome-shell without that metapackage installed.
Test Case
=========
Does gnome-shell recommend chrome-gnome-shell?
Regression Potential
=======
Low. chrome-gnome-shell was already tested (LP: #1652537)
Other Info
==========
This is only a recommends since perhaps users of gnome-shell without ubuntu-
Ubuntu 17.04 was released with gnome-shell recommending chrome-gnome-shell.
Currently, Ubuntu 17.10 Alpha's gnome-shell does not recommend chrome-gnome-shell because the Ubuntu Desktop Team is trying to get a minimal gnome-shell into main first then add the extra dependencies later. I expect chrome-gnome-shell to be in main and be restored as a recommends before 17.10 is released.

Thanks for preparing the SRU! This doesn't seem to be the case for artful though, is it? Checking the packaging for gnome-shell (3.24.2-0ubuntu4) I don't see the same Recommends as proposed here - is it not needed there? Or is it a bug that only affects gnome users below 3.24? Same for zesty.
