Bug Description

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 21.10
Release: 21.10

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
$ apt-cache policy gnome-control-center
gnome-control-center:
  Installed: 1:40.0-1ubuntu5
  Candidate: 1:40.0-1ubuntu5
  Version table:
 *** 1:40.0-1ubuntu5 500
        500 http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu impish/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What you expected to happen
Run gnome-control-center without gedit-common (I'm using VS Code as my text editor and removed Gedit, installed by default). Easy way - add gedit-common as dependency for gnome-control-center.

4) What happened instead

$ sudo apt-get remove -y gedit
