7 GNOME 2 versions all. it's installed dirs &
8 libs : /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.0.so, /usr/include/libgnome-2.0/, etc.
9 GNOME 1 didn't version at all so that didn't get in the way either.

11 We do not support having several versions in the same SLOT (literal
12 meaning) coexist like KDE does atm. eg. people can't have gnome 2.2 &
13 2.6 co-existing on a default install, but in my opinion there is no good
14 reason to support that.
