I forgot to say that I'm building a lightweight LXDE LiveCD, so I don't install gnome or gnome-desktop-environment. gnome-system-tools includes many small applications, I just want to install 2 of them, they are graphical applications to manage users/groups and date/time. My machine has a minimal LXDE dekstop too, I installed these 2 applications successfully with "--without-recommends" option. Regards, Hung
