The problem with removing gdm is that it will remove the task-helix-core package as well. While that doesn't seem to be a problem (the package is just an empty packgake of requisities), if task-helix-core is later updated to include another package (as it has just recently included grdb, I think), you'll miss out on another package you may want if you want your helix gnome dist up-to-date. // jt
