Oh, sorry. I forgot to mention that Ben already reassigned it..
anyway, should I upload the gtk packages? (sorry to keep asking so many
questions!) I'm not sure what to do if I have to tweak the source to build
it, as in this case..
(and besides, gtk+ will hopefully be fixed in its next version by the
maintainer)

Do you have packages/information on this? Did you use esound, or can
Gnome be compiled without it? (that was the major issue I encountered..)
I believe you that Gnome doesn't work well on the Hurd, but I'd like to have
the libraries so programs with both Gnome and non-Gnome components can build
easily.

Ok. (I just got a "wmaker INSTALLED" message from dinstall, as a matter
of fact..)
"Jeff" == "Jeff Bailey", right?
