Title: No more GNOME in Slackware
Post by: Joe on March 27, 2005, 11:55:38 PM
QuoteAnonymous Coward writes "After long consideration, Pat Volkerding has removed GNOME from Slackware. Pat mentions in the -current ChangeLog that GNOME takes a lot of time to package, so this move should allow more time to be spent on the rest of Slackware." From the changelog: "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."

Newby: If you can't take a joke, stop reading this post right now. You wouldn't love GNOME so much if you didn't have a garden gnome stuck up your ass. gg.

Past instances were I professed to like you were fraudulant.  I have had intimate relations with your wife or significant other.

Joey: If you can't take a joke, the preceding post should not have been read. :P
