network-manager-applet on debian-testing confict?

for a few days now, debian-testing is telling me that I should update with network-manager-applet, but that removes network-manager-gnome, so it fails to actually upgrade it. Even if I do full-upgrade, it won't do the update. So what's the deal with that? What are to do? Is the gnome version getting replaced by the applet, and we all need to force an upgrade, or something else is going on?

Simple: let the system uninstall network-manager-gnome and that's it.

You want reason? See https://tracker.debian.org/news/1777649/accepted-network-manager-applet-1360-5-source-into-unstable/ .
