So, what you're saying is that it's impossible to run a mono-free gnome-based system without breaking dependencies? And that's just because "a lot of people find it useful"? Stop joking, please. Error message is not a reason to make it a dependency IMHO. > And if somebody wrote a lighter tomboy replacement that didn't use mono, > we'd probably use that instead. But so far, nobody has. That doesn't mean you have to force the bloat of mono on everyone.
