I'm having a hard time understanding this particular gripe. If you're
running a non-desktop system (by this I take it to mean that you're not
using a GUI), why would you worry about GNOME's dependencies anyhow?
If you're using a desktop system it doesn't feel like a stretch to use
functionality that fits in with the desktop system. And vice versa,
obviously.
