Thanks a lot for your work! I might be one of the few that appreciates
this DE, especially because it's quite clutter-free and has awesome (and
consistent) keyboard shortcuts that spare me a lot of time.

I had a quick testing run and I couldn't make it work, not sure if I
should report a bug or if there are simply some things that are not
there yet and I'm doing it wrong.

I couldn't 'apt-get install gnome' because, down in the dependency
chain, gvfs-backends (which you packaged) depends on libgphoto2-port10,
which is not available and has been replaced by libgphoto2-port12.
However it looks like the replacement is not enough, since I already
have it installed:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gvfs-backends : Depends: libgphoto2-port10 (>= 2.5.2) but it is not
installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
root@corwin:~# apt-get install libgphoto2-port10
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libgphoto2-port10 is not available, but is referred to by
another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
libgphoto2-port12:i386 libgphoto2-port12

E: Package 'libgphoto2-port10' has no installation candidate
root@corwin:~# dpkg -l | grep libgphoto2-port
ii  libgphoto2-port12:amd64               2.5.7-5
amd64        gphoto2 digital camera port library

I'll try rebuilding gvfs and its dependencies during the weekend and
report back, I suspect it should be enough.
