==== UNDER SARGE: ====
As of the mirror pulse on the evening of 24 January 2004, the Gnome metapackages are fully up-to-date in [http://www.debian.org/releases/testing sarge], so you should be able to follow the directions above for sid.

In order to get the metapackages installable on all architectures, we need:

 * mips version of epiphany-browser
 * mipsel version of epiphany-browser
 * m68k version of planner (requires newer postgresql)

Installing Gnome

UNDER SID and SARGE:

The current metapackage for installing a good set of Gnome tools in [http://www.debian.org/releases/unstable sid] is gnome-desktop-environment. So, from the command line, run

apt-get install gnome

but this will install additional software (gnome-office, evolution) that you may not want.

You can also do

apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment

UNDER WOODY:

In [http://www.debian.org/releases/stable woody] no ["metapackage"] exists. Instead, run

 # apt-get install gnome-core gnome-panel gnome-control-center sawfish-gnome
