That is true. But somehow I'd like to get rid of GTK2/GNOME2 based
applications in the meta packages, not add new ones.

The reason why hamster-applet is there, is because the new meta-packages are
more closely modelled after how upstream organizes them.

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/core/3.0/3.0.2/sources/
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/apps/3.0/3.0.2/sources/

hamster-applet is part of apps atm.

Cheers,
Michael
