When I see lies like in this discussion, nothing could be seen as
"constructuive". 


1) It is not the software which depends on gnome it is a
decision from the debian package mainteainers.

2) there reasons are *lies*. gnome-vfs won't gove them "the list of installed
browser". It will give them the list of *gnome* installed browsers. They
choose to make the user prisonner of a system which I consider the only
constructive way to use it is to refuse anything that wants it.

Now If I had the time and the knowlegdge I might try to propose alternatives, but I won't learn the intruisics of a system I consider is a failure from the first idea juste for this. I have other things to do than learning inneficient ways to use my computers juste because some moron decided the windows way was the only acceptable and that users are idiots.
