Wrapper packages

bleux-backgrounds

This package wraps around the gnome-backgrounds package and provides the ubuntu-wallpapers package. This is necessary so that gnome-backgrounds can fully replace ubuntu-wallpapers, which is a dependency of gnome-shell.

bleux-console

This package wraps around the gnome-console package, recommends nautilus-extension-gnome-console, provides the x-terminal-emulator package and sets gnome-console as an x-terminal-emulator alternative using the update-alternatives command. This is necessary so that gnome-console can fully replace gnome-terminal feature-wise.
