Bug Description
After dist-upgrade'ing, the gwibber command goes away. friends-app is the replacement. However, dist-upgrade will remove the 'gwibber' package and not leave you with friends-app command. Type 'gwibber' at the cli and command-not-found will tell you that 'gwibber' is part of the 'gwibber' package. Re-apt-get that package but you still don't get a 'gwibber' command, so command-not-found will again tell you to install 'gwibber'. However the 'gwibber' package *does* give you friends-app.

Ken is the one who put together the transitional package that made gwibber force friends-app upon you, so this is his fault ;-)
I feel that /usr/bin/gwibber should probably be a symlink to /usr/bin/ friends- app, so that way people will get the right thing when they try to launch 'gwibber', but maybe there's a better way to handle it, I'm not sure.
