When using Glade, try to use only the widgets from the GTK+ Basic and
GTK+ Additional palettes.  This will limit the number of dependencies
that your app has.  In general, the more you can depend on just pygtk,
the better it is for people running KDE-only systems.  Otherwise,
they'll have to install some Gnome libraries just to run the program.

As talked about last week or so, there are still some programs like
redhat-config-printer which have Gnome dependencies, usually because
they use the GnomeDruid widget.  We should try to replace those widgets
with GTK equivalents in the future.

For instance, the config-dhcpd window is a Gnome Application Window.
Using the GtkWindow from the GTK+ Basic palette would serve the same
purpose and avoid the Gnome dependency.  Also, I would recommend using a
GtkVBox to achieve the same result as the BonoboDock widget.  I'll email
you a modified glade file that demonstrates what I'm talking
about...it's too big to attach to an email to the mailing list.


Cheers,
   Brent
