Eeeks...
I think it's fair to object to calling it 'gnome cinnamon' and it also does not do any fair to Cinnamon.
By now it is a rather self contained and stable Desktop environment; just like lxde it does makes use of the libraries and infrastructure provided.
The fact though that Cinnamon needs to pull in whatever it needs on its own and not relying on a pattern of another DE is a given in my opinion.

Hi Dominique, you are right. I did not intend to be unfair towards the Cinnamon users and maintainers. To me cinnamon was an alternate frontend to gnome but obviously this seems to be incorrect. My point was that the pattern (at least the pattern alone) won't solve the problem that cinnamon is missing require tags. If adding a pattern has additional benefits, I have no problem with that :) -- Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer Tel.: +49-170-6381563 Mail: lang@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
