Bug Description
Binary package hint: evince-gtk
Hi. Since evince-gtk conflicts with evince, and ubuntu-desktop depends on evince, installing evince-gtk removes the ubuntu-desktop metapackage. Now I'm not sure if this a bug or not, but the description for ubuntu-desktop recommends not to remove it, so I think ubuntu-desktop should depend on either evince or evince-gtk, especially since evince-gtk shows up as an officially supported package by Canonical.
Thanks.

And precisely because evince-gtk is not supported, ubuntu-desktop should not depend on it :)
xubutu-desktop depends on evince | evince-gtk though.
