Heheh, that seems like alot of trouble to save some CPU cycles and disk.
I jsut build it and forget it.
:D
...and in this case, mozilla w/ gtk2 looks pretty nice.

This is a direct quote from Obz one of the gnome ebuild maintainers:
"the GNOME ebuild as provided by us, is "a wrapper for the
complete GNOME desktop" which is what the GNOME project deems
as their
complete desktop. However, there's no reason that you need to
agree
with them on what makes your desktop complete, the wrappers are
merely for your convenience. If you open up the ebuild (as
pointed out in previous comment) and remove the lines with the
packages you dont want (I always remove out acme, file-roller
etc,
things that I just dont need) and emerge, you should be
fine."
"Just beware that this changes will be overwritten on an rsync,
so you'll need to alter them again if you need to remerge
later."
SO I assume that you can comment mozilla/ephiphany out of the ebuild and
not have them emerged.
