I thought this would be more than enough, but alas... So I guess Gnome is too much for my wee system so I want to go back to using enlightenment. My issue is that now my system is full of packages that I don't need. How do I clean up my system of all of these packages without deleting packages that enlightenment uses?? Thanks
