Replaced packages for GSB 2.22 ============================== The following is a list of packages that replace official Slackware packages. Packages listed under 'Required' are Slackware packages that must be replaced by corresponding GNOME SlackBuild versions in order to use this version of GSB. Packages listed under 'Optional' are packages which replace official Slackware packages, but their replacement is only necessary for added functionality, or certain GNOME applications. Their replacement is recommended, but not required if you do not plan to use certain applications, or are dead set against replacing any more official Slackware packages than necessary. Required -------- glib2: Version > 2.15 is required by libgnome 2.22, Gvfs 0.2.3, and Nautilus 2.22. libwnck: Version > 2.22 is required by Metacity 2.22, and GNOME 2.22 in general. Optional -------- mozilla-firefox: The GSB version provides shared libraries (the Slackware version doesn't), which is required by Epiphany, Yelp, GNOME Python and DevHelp. compiz-fusion: Slackware ships with compiz 0.7.4. compiz-fusion is cooler and offers GNOME support. libgsf: Slackware's libgsf lacks GNOME support, which is required for GNOME Office applications like Gnumeric.
