Title:
  debian/control incorrectly installs gnome-session dependencies in
  ubuntu-budgie

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  software-properties-gtk is used on the official gtk desktops such as
  budgie.

  Currently in the debian control file it has a recommendation to
  install the session manager for that desktop - so gnome-session-bin
  for GNOME based desktops, mate-session for mate desktop and so on.

  budgie-desktop for noble now uses budgie-session as its session
  manager instead of gnome-session.

  Because of the current recommendation, gnome-session-bin is installed
  on budgie-desktop.  It no longer needs to be installed.

  software-properties needs an update to its alternate recommendations
  so that budgie-desktop doesnt pull in gnome-session-bin incorrectly.
