I am upgrading a formerly gnome based desktop after trialling gnome3 for a few weeks and its now an lxde based system that is a few months out of date. Iam currently in the process of tying to exterminate the remaining gnomes which seem to want to keep dragging in systemd (I use eudev).
I am running the use flags of -gnome and -systemd and a desktop profile of /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/x86/13.0 Can someone suggest a more appropriate use flag/profile combination that will exclude primarily systemd? As lxde upstream is moving to QT instead of gtk would the kde profile be better? There are a very few gnome apps like epihany and gnumeric that I use but if it means systemd they will be removed as well. While I very much dislike the gnome desktop, I don't mind some friendly gnomes being installed, but they seem to be getting fewer and fewer :) BillK
