One would hope that you can do this in such a way that you could install 'emacs' and not drag in gnome, and it would do text mode only, and then install emacs-gnome which gives emacs the ability to do gui. Perhaps emacs supplies a /usr/bin/emacs script that defaults to /usr/bin/emacs-tui, and if you try to pass it -x it will note the lack of /usr/bin/emacs-gnome and tell you no, but if you install emacs-gnome subpackage, the libraries and deps are then installed and emacs -x would launch the gui emacs. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
