Pacho, would you accept patches and USE flags to make gdm an optional
component to gnome virtual? Power management is not crucial for window
management.

Currently, I am mainly (there are other apps that I prefer not install in all systems but adding a USE flag for each of them would be excesive) using gnome-light instead of gnome ebuild because I don't want to install vinagre and vino in my systems and, in some of them, I don't install evolution (bacause users that will use affected system use thunderbird instead of evo)

I have seen that there are already USE flags for these apps in /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc :
evo - Adds support for mail-client/evolution
vnc - Enable VNC (remote desktop viewer) support

Then, I seems reasonable (at least for me) use this global USE flags for not forcing people to install evolution and vnc related apps

Thanks a lot"
