Installing Gnome

UNDER SID:

The current metapackage for installing a good set of Gnome tools is gnome-desktop-environment. So, from the command line, run

aptitude install gnome-desktop-environment

You can also do

aptitude install gnome

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

UNDER SARGE:

Gnome is currently broken. The gnome-core package is still the old 1.4 version, but the other components are the newer 2.4. Install at your own risk!

UNDER WOODY:

No metapackage exists. Again, run

aptitude install gnome-core gnome-panel gnome-control-center gnome-session gnome-sawfish
