Hi
I'm trying to run a program which requires the wnck python module, which I believe is part of the gnome-python-desktop package. I like to keep my gnome desktop minimal, but this package wants to install the following: $ emerge -vp gnome-python-desktop These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ... done!
