[Bug 710171] Re: gnome3-session is not installable as gnome-shell doesn't exist

funicorn, it was widely announced that Gnome Shell was not going to be
ready for inclusion in the Ubuntu 11.04 repositories because it wasn't
ready. Once a Ubuntu version is released, it is impossible to add new
packages to it, not to mention that it would require adding all of Gnome
3 to a Gnome 2.32 distribution which is extremely disruptive.

This kind of bug can only be fixed in the development release of Ubuntu,
but it has already been fixed there! In Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric), all
you'll need to do is sudo apt-get install gnome-shell and everything
should just work.
