So general info: For gnome we need a xml file which actually adds the wallpaper into wallpaper chooser. The one in current package points to xml which describes the time-of-day wallpaper version. If you'd need gnome desktop without time-of-day wallpaper you'd need to add two new xmls (one which would describe which images are used at which sizes and another one which would add it to background chooser). In theory, we could split the -gnome subpackage into -gnome and -gnome-tod which however isn't what we (design team) want as we want the time-of-day wallpaper used by default on Desktop spin. It's set not in kickstart, but in gnome-desktop(3), hence the requires. For KDE we need the wallpaper description via .desktop file (in -kde sub-package). AFAIK, KDE does not have support for time-of-day animation so it does not pull in everything. For LXDE and XFCE neither -gnome nor -kde sub-packages should be pulled in and if they are, then it's wrong. Regards, Martin
