http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/desktop-base

States:
This package contains various miscellaneous files which are used by Debian Desktop installations. Currently, it provides some Debian-related artwork and themes, .desktop files containing links to Debian related material (suitable for placement on a user's desktop), and other common files between the available desktop environments such as GNOME and KDE.

Sounds fairly important

Hello,

Install Ubuntu-Tweak from the Synaptic Package Manager. You can clean up all the dross with this.

Regards,

Allan :)

Can you help with this problem?
