A few days ago, I did a test installation using Squeeze and selected the Gnome desktop instead of KDE. It was no success, but a complete failure. The Debian Edu setup was missing.
The cause was the fact that debian-edu-config depend on debian-edu-artwork, which in turn conflict with desktop-base pulled in by Gnome. The result is that debian-edu-config is removed during installation and no post-installation configuration is done. Someone should probably have a look at this and try to fix it. I am not sure why d-e-artwork conflict with desktop-base, but have vague memories of it being related to the grub 2 artwork stuff. Perhaps the grub2 packages need to be changed to make it easier for multiple packages to provide artwork for it, or Gnome should drop the dependency on desktop-base?
