GNOME 2.91.x Core

The Core Desktop is the set of components that are needed to get a desktop session running and to have it provide core functionalities (display manager, session manager, desktop shell, file manager, settings manager, etc.).

It has the entirety of the Core GNOME UX, including fallback and utilities.
