1 Hi everyone,
2
3 So I've finally gotten Gentoo Linux (2005.1 release) going on my shiny
4 new AMD64 system. I've emerged some basic packages, and xorg-x11. But
5 now I want to install gnome. If I do "emerge -p gnome", it prints out a
6 rather hefty list of packages that will get installed. But I don't want
7 all the stuff. I just want the basic gnome desktop, and its
8 dependencies, but not epiphany, evolution, and the several other packages.
9
10 I cannot emerge gnome-light, because it is masked. Is there any way I
11 can install a minimal gnome system?
12
13 Thanks in advance.
