Those instructions support those that may want gnome-terminal, but not
the rest of gnome.
Then why is it only in the SysV book?
Why is what only in the SysV book? gnome-terminal is certainly there.
But now with elogind I think we can build a full GNOME environment in sysv? We
should make these two parameters optional.
We can change the explanations and add gmome-shell as an optional
dependency. We already have nautilus as recommended, but honestly I do
not understand how a terminal emulator would use a file manager or gnome
shell if the user is not using the gnome desktop environment.
