It seems that gnome-vfs2 functionality is not used by any application in
RHEL 7, it is just dependency of libgnome. Will be libgnome included in
RHEL 8? Isn't possible to build libgnome without gnome-vfs2 support?

It seems that policycoreutils-gui and rhn-setup-gnome are last two
consumers of libgnome. The following change will probably result in removal
of libgnome dependency from policycoreutils-gui:

There were happing some changes recently in rhn-client-tools, like port to
python3, so it might continue with the removal of those dependencies also...

Michael? Tomas?

Just a note that I was talking with Tomas Kasparek last week and
tentatively it should be enough to port one GnomeDruid widget to
GtkAssistant in spacewalk/client/rhel/rhn-client-tools/data/gui.glade file.
