Extra Dependencies
sudo apt-get install –no-install-recommends gnome-panel
according to
UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles - Community Ubuntu Documentation
which states that:
It is important to install gnome-panel using the following command, so as not to install the recommended not-needed packets along with it.
If I put gnome-panel in the Extra Dependencies step, it would presumably effectively be sudo apt-get install gnome-panel.
What should I do?
