When doing an upgrade on a machine with a small HD the installer though it would be fun to throw in gnome completely including ALL the devel packages and even gnome-audio-extras This is BAD. Now a days one can install a kde or even an Anotherlevel workstation, but the upgrade still forces gnome, causing severe lack of diskspace. This really pisses me of afaik people have been complaining about this since gnome was included. What is won by standard forcing gnome down people's throat if they upgrade? I find this the microsoft way. I actually use gnome, but not on all my machines, gnome is no fun on a 486 with 12 meg and a 360mb HD. I had gnome-libs installed for gftp and xchat which I use a lott. But there was no reason to add gnome-core, gnome-games, gnome-audio and the devel stuff.
Fixed for beta5.
(btw, this was a bug where we try and get some desktop on pre-6.0 machines that didn't have gnome or kde; we were a bit overzealous)
