Does this happen when only Enlightenment is installed? If not, I do not think this is necessarily a bug. It makes sense that englightenment would detect all programs installed. Since other desktop environments install programs, enlightenment should detect the other programs. If gnome is installed alongside enlightenment, I would expect both environments to detect the same packages, including those installed by gnome and those installed by enlightenment. I suppose if it is nevertheless an undesirable behavior, we could try to allow a configuration to specify global profiles, so the desktop environments can be isolated from each other. Can anyone poke holes (bonus points if security-related) in this proposed solution?
