Secondly, there are cases like GDM, where a single unsupported package
have rather "long reaching" consequences.  In the concrete example,
GNOME (via gnome-core) strictly depends on gdm3, meaning that if gdm3
goes, (more or less) all of gnome goes with it[2].  That in turn means

that task-gnome-desktop cannot be installed on kFreeBSD (I presumethis

will at least affect d-i).


gdm3 could be replaced by lightdm in the gnome-core package or not?
