As Jos. will tell you, I make a lot of modifications to garnome and indeed leave out large parts of it while compiling more and more into packages for my system. My goal is to integrate garnome into my system, not have it duplicate libraries here and there. And yes, I fully understand all the risks! It's just that for me, I only use a few gnome apps and do not use the gnome desktop, so having the whole desktop and wm available for me is overkill. Unfortunately, for gnome, it does not have a build paradigm like kde does, so it's a lot more work. I can't imagine how much time you guys spent trying to set up garnome! For me, setting up gnome-platform only took two days. The desktop apps are much more time consuming. Hopefully, once set up, I will only have to update a few packages here and there when versions increment. PITA and risky and certainly not pretty! -- Peter -- garnome-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/garnome-list
