Bug Description
libgnome has been removed from Debian Testing and will not be included in the Debian 10 "Buster" release. We should do the same. If we do it now, maybe some projects will do the needed porting work away from libgnome (porting to gtk3 is probably needed) in time for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS or Debian 10. Users who are hurt by these removals can keep using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS for a few years.
A major rdepends is gnome-sharp2 (This is Mono stuff). The replacement is gtk-sharp3.
gnome-sharp2 has been removed from Debian now. All of the affected packages have already been removed from Debian except for tomboy-blogposter (never in Debian) and the cairo-dock plugin (doesn't need to be removed).

The only one of these apps that even *runs* for me in cosmic is bareftp. For the others, I get crashes like this:
(pdfmod at least runs in Debian Testing and I have an NMU in progress to drop the gnome-sharp2 dependency but it still won't run in cosmic.)
$ pdfmod
