:>Description:
: There is no GNOME package. GNOME is the GNU Network Object Model
: Environment, a desktop (similar to KDE). It has been adopted as
: the official desktop for Red Hat and Debian Linux, and has some
: cool'ish applications available.
:>Fix:
: Create a "gnome" package with similar structure to the "kde" package.
: (not supplied)
Or wait a bit 'til it stabilises some more, e.g. next version. It needs
quite a few patches to run. I found 0.25 more effort to build than 0.20
