Installing Gnome

The current ["metapackage"] for installing a good set of Gnome tools in [http://www.debian.org/releases/unstable sid], [http://www.debian.org/releases/testing etch] and [http://www.debian.org/releases/stable sarge] ["Debian"] is gnome. So, from the command line, run

 # aptitude install gnome

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

For a smaller set of apps, you can also do

 # aptitude install gnome-desktop-environment

A set of additional productivity apps will be installed by

 # aptitude install gnome-fifth-toe

If you need development packages, e.g. for compiling gnome dependend packages from source, you should try

 # aptitude install gnome-core-devel

For a full set of developer tools, please do

 # aptitude install gnome-devel
