Comment 10 for bug 187177

Whether it's a bug or not is a little bit a gray area I think... When I tried to install totem I totally did not expect to switch from KDE to (a partial) gnome. As it is, it's very odd and unexpected behaviour for just installing an application.

You do get a huge list of "this will be installed as well", but at that time I didn't know installing the rest would switch my desktop. A lot of people would be stuck after installing totem the way it is now.
