I'd really like to automate the Gnome 2 stuff as much as I can as KDE is what I primarily use and only want Gnome2 as an alternative and not have to go through the learning curve of building it by hand.

Garnome is your script of choice for building Gnome 2. Allows you to
specify a location seperate from Gnome 1.4 and keep the two running side
by side until;l you get completley converted over.

Take a look at the links off the main gnome site for more details.

Great to hear about your choice of distro !!!

Apt rocks !!!
