gnome-core depends on nautilus, which recommends synaptic.
Unless such recommends are being skipped by something, it should be
installed.

nautilus (3.2.1-2) unstable; urgency=low

provided by alternatives like PackageKit or sessioninstaller now.

I see.. I see this was mentioned before in this bug report, just before
it got closed a month ago. Opening a new bug report is probably a good way
