I've taken a look at the bulk build logs and GNOME is currently failing
because of the lack of pkg-config files in native XFree86, so maybe
this was a false alarm. Looking at the meta-pkg's dependencies, there
doesn't seem to be a restricted one. The reason I came up with GNOME
is ISTR there used to be such an issue earlier, but I can't verfiy that,
lacking (access to) older bulk build logs.
