Here are some GNOME 2.0 applications/enhancements in sid that may not be installed by the 'gnome' metapackage: * ttf-freefont (if it wasn't installed with the gnome metapackage) * gtk2-engines-* and metacity-themes for desktop themes. * metacity-setup for changing options that aren't yet in the Gnome 2.0 preferences (this should become unnecessary in Gnome 2.2). * galeon-snapshot for a GTK2 web browser (note: still in development) * gnome-gv (PDF/Postscript viewer) * gnome-games * totem
