[arch-general] gnome only install - installing compiz pulls in kde4-runtime?? Why?

Wow over 1/2G saved on my / partition. That's what I wanted.

	Allan, never stop giving users that extra bit of help with the command line,
like 'pacman -Rs compiz-decorator-kde'. That saved me at least an hour of
searching, frustration and trial and error. For users moving to Arch from other
distros with different package managers, that extra effort and little extra bit
of help is worth its weight in gold!
