8 No, also console applications like pine and mutt will probably considered
9 desktop applications. Basically there will be a partition of all ebuilds into
10 probably (we are not ready with it yet): -desktop, -base, -server and
11 - -toolkit
12
13 Of these -toolkit is the most vague but it basically includes things like
14 libxml, various programming languages (not gcc which is part of -base),
15 tcl/tk and other packages that enduser packages build upon. I know there will
16 be some tough judgements with certain packages but desktop basically includes
17 those packages that someone uses when using the computer as
18 desktop/workstation and has nothing to do with socalled desktop environments
19 as kde and gnome
