I installed the Gnome2 port, and it installed a whole lot of stuff that
I wasn't expecting, including stuff that I don't know what it is, and
also stuff that I never intend to use.

Is there a way to install just a "basic" Gnome, without all the stuff?
That is, the default applications of various types? If I want Evolution,
or Epiphany, or games, or blah blah blah, I would like to just install
that specific thing myself when I decide that I want it.  But if I want
to use Firefox, I'm not interested in having Epiphany installed.

Thanks,

Bob Vesterman.
