Description of problem:

I just tried Fedora 18 and noticed that Nemo is marked as a dependency of Cinnamon... I like Cinnamon really much, but I also like the new Nautilus 3.6. Is there any way to use cinnamon with nautilus instead of nemo? I think it would be nice to have a choice.

This will help when it's merged.

Improving nemo would be nice, but having a choice is also nice.

Upstream claims that the user is free to choose between nemo and nautilus ... and as far as I can see there is no technical reason nautilus can't be used. It is thus unfortunate that the cinnamon package has a mandatory dependency to nemo.

Please make the nemo dependency less tight, for instance by moving it to the cinnamon-desktop-environment group.
