This sure is a long list of packages. I tried using 'aptitude' to avoid
it, but instead it seems that the gnome package in Sid (version 59 I
believe) depends on specific versions of packages ('=' is used instead
of '=<', maybe for good reasons) and a recent upgrade from experimental
removed my 'gnome' package. Since I mix usage of 'apt-get' 'aptitude'
and 'debfoster' (which might be stupid) I immediately ended up in a
situation where 'debfoster' all of a sudden saw a lot of packages that
had been orphaned. I opted for 'apt-get install gnome' and a few of the
Gnome2.8 packages were removed :( I'd really like to eat the cake and
keep it too.
