And what about all the "3rd party" library dependencies?
I think to get a real good binary distri which really works for
everybody you also will have to package a lot of stuff from "outside"
the garnome balls with the binary packages.

I think garnome's purpose is not to be such an "end user full blown"
gnome2 distri.
But there are some projects like Ximian-Desktop or Dropline-Gnome which
focus on to produce an "end user" gnome2 desktop.
