Oh sorry, that wasn't Gnome, I just got carried away with the success
of installing GTK.

The whole thing actually came up because I wanted to includ a file selector
and I though I will use Gtk2::Ex::Dialogs::ChooseFile from  Gtk2::Ex::Dialogs 
but that module depends on Gnome2::VFS.

So how else can I includ a file and directory selector that is cross platform ?
