# Minimal tier: GNOME Shell + control center + the daemons that the
# Quick Settings tiles depend on. Mid and full tier additions are
# mostly inherited from common.yaml — see kde-plasma.yaml for the
# pattern of overriding common-tier entries per DE. The only thing
# GNOME drops from the common mid set is `transmission-gtk`,
# because GNOME ships its own torrent integration via the Files
# / Downloads UI and a stand-alone GTK torrent client is redundant.
