Title:
  lists "gdm" as keydependency

Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “ubuntu-release-upgrader” source package in Quantal:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  If there is no ubuntu-desktop installed it will use "gdm" as one of
  the key dependencies to figure out what DE to use. This is obsolete.

  Test case:
  1. install precise
  2. remove ubuntu-desktop
  3. upgrade and verify that it won't try to reinstall ubuntu-desktop

  4. use the update release-upgrader via do-release-upgrade -d
  5. verify that it works now and reinstalls ubuntu-desktop
