Almost all Gnome stuff is optional, so I personally remove some apps after a Xubuntu install, but I'd recon that for a new Xubuntu user, the given set of applications are OK. Best would be that the default Gnome-loaded apps get stripped of their dependencies, but that's subject to the amount of time Xubuntu devs are willing to devote to that...</blockquote><div> Well, I'd at least want to say that, even though you probably won't hear it often, gnome-games is a very welcome addition for me and I think a lot of other people too. </div> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">-H- > > cheers > > Oliver Hoffmann > > -- > xubuntu-devel mailing list > <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> > <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel </a> -- xubuntu-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel </a> </blockquote></div> -- Vincent
