Hi there, 

I have just installed the "gnome" package, and 169 packages were installed 
(including dependencies). 

However I was concerned to find out that packages that I would consider 
fairly important to a gnome installation (gdm, gnome-audio, rhythmbox, 
xscreensaver) were not installed. 

I am reasonably new to gentoo, but I attempted to use the USE flags 
appropriately. 

Can someone tell me what considerations are taken into account when deciding 
to include/exclude dependencies in this way? 

Thanks, Matt
