gnome-system-monitor also pulls in the gtkmm packages, so that
shouldn't be an issue.

That's the one thing that gnote doesn't support. Note syncing is a
feature that I can live without, so I'm perfectly happy with gnote,
but unfortunately it seems that not having the ability to sync notes
online is a deal-breaker for a lot of users. As far as I know, online
note syncing is on upstream's to-do list, but there's no timeframe for
its inclusion in gnote. :(
