Description

Hi, I have sent the following to the developers mailing list but awaiting moderation after two days.

Currently on Trisquel 7`gnome` has broken dependency and could not be installed because of `gnome-core` package.
The problem is that gnome-core depends on firefox instead of abrowser or icecat.
I have written a package helper to solve this issue, but because it is the first time I am writing a package helper it might be incorrect. The control file in `meta-gnome3` package must be modified.
