Bug Description

Bluefish, despite describing itself as an "HTML Editor" claims that it's the best editor for text file types including C, Perl and Python source code in its desktop file.

As this is a dependency of gnome-devel, which is probably a commonly installed meta-package, it should probably have these stripped to leave it to gedit to do that.
