Ya I just did that and it was installed because of gnome .... I don't
remember installing gnome ... when I installed my laptop, I chose no WM nor
X as I wanted to learn how to do it *the debian way* using apt-get/aptitude.
I went from X to fluxbox and gnome wasn't an inbetween. I imagine some deps
where installed with other packages but upon checking .... I have a full
gnome install and I *know* I didn't install it, so I am left scratching my
head.
