Hmm,  I notice that one of the offenders (gconf for Gnome) has gone from 
1.0.8 to 2.2.0.  I'm not familiar with Gnome (having used it briefly once and 
not been back to it) - it's only on my system for a few programs who need it 
and if a program requires Gnome parts I think long and hard about adding it.  
Could it be that the new Gnome 2.x stuff drags more junk in then it did 
before?
