Slackware -current 里面终于去掉gnome了

gnome/*: Removed from -current, and turned over to community support and
       distribution. I'm not going to rehash all the reasons behind this, but it's
       been under consideration for more than four years. There are already good
       projects in place to provide Slackware GNOME for those who want it, and
       these are more complete than what Slackware has shipped in the past. So, if
       you're looking for GNOME for Slackware -current, I would recommend looking at
       these two projects for well-built packages that follow a policy of minimal
       interference with the base Slackware system:

       http://gsb.sf.net
       http://gware.sf.net

       There is also Dropline, of course, which is quite popular. However, due to
       their policy of adding PAM and replacing large system packages (like the
       entire X11 system) with their own versions, I can't give quite the same sort
       of nod to Dropline. Nevertheless, it remains another choice, and it's _your_
       system, so I will also mention their project:

       http://www.dropline.net/gnome/

       Please do not incorrectly interpret any of this as a slight against GNOME
       itself, which (although it does usually need to be fixed and polished beyond
       the way it ships from upstream more so than, say, KDE or XFce) is a decent
       desktop choice. So are a lot of others, but Slackware does not need to ship
       every choice. GNOME is and always has been a moving target (even the
       "stable" releases usually aren't quite ready yet) that really does demand a
       team to keep up on all the changes (many of which are not always well
       documented). I fully expect that this move will improve the quality of both
       Slackware itself, and the quality (and quantity) of the GNOME options
       available for it.

       Folks, this is how open source is supposed to work. Enjoy. :-)

看来不换是不成了。
刚开始接触linux的时候就是用的就是gnome，呵呵。
学习新东西也是必要地啊。

有DL在，我就放心……

Pat做Gnome确实不怎么样……

只要有窗口管理器就成，把kde去掉也没关系，我用blackbox和fvwm，反正gtk、gimp、mozilla、firefox都在，其它程序一应俱全，我还是用slackware，换另一个系统太花时间了。而且可以从

下载gnome for slackware

那么下一个版本的第二张光盘不是空出一块了么, 会不会加上dropline呢?

肯定不会加dropline的，看文章里Pat的话:dropline将大量系统程序替换成它自己的版本，Pat不是很赞成。也许会加其它有用的程序，也是好事啊。

我无所谓。因为我崇尚简单就是美，所以，我一直用Windows Manages！

无论如何支持slk，gnome迷别走啊

前辈们对这个问题这样敏感，
不知道这个事情意味着什么？

窗口管理器这么多，
去掉一个Gnome好象也没什么吧？

纯属个人意见。
