fix gnome repeated bug "Allow remote interaction"

[dougg0k]

Hi,

There is a bug on gnome, that are randomly triggered, even with steam. Once it starts, even if you close what triggered it, the behavior continues repeatedly.

Whatever bug it is, are in the xdg-desktop-portal-gnome package. By removing it, it fixes the issue.

I would suggest to add the removal and prevent the installation of it on updates. But not it's dependencies, that way, everything continue working properly.

If the dependencies are removed too, the only thing I noticed were that dark theme were not properly applied on some places.

Portals are a vital part of the system. Some apps (notably browsers and Steam) and flatpak use it to open file dialogs and more. This should be fixed in their side rather than us trying to break other things

Portals are not removed, only the -gnome would be.

❯ pacman -Qs portal
local/libportal 0.8.1-1.1
    GIO-style async APIs for most Flatpak portals
local/libportal-gtk3 0.8.1-1.1
    GIO-style async APIs for most Flatpak portals - GTK 3 backend
local/libportal-gtk4 0.8.1-1.1
    GIO-style async APIs for most Flatpak portals - GTK 4 backend
local/xdg-desktop-portal 1.18.4-2.1
    Desktop integration portals for sandboxed apps
local/xdg-desktop-portal-gnome 47.1-2.1 (gnome)
    Backend implementation for xdg-desktop-portal for the GNOME desktop environment
local/xdg-desktop-portal-gtk 1.15.1-2.1
    A backend implementation for xdg-desktop-portal using GTK

But sure.
