* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-connections): New variable.

I kept the support-related sentence in the description because I think it is
important to put this application in the search results for “support” and
“help”.  But feel free to kill the last sentence if you don’t think so.

I don't think "support" or "help" are good search terms to look for
when you need remote desktop software and vice versa.  Yes, you can
help others through remote desktop software, but you should be very
aware of the implications of doing so.  Needless to say, descriptions
are not likely to capture that nuance.

Cheers
