Subject: Gnome Desk Guide Fails

A new problem has arisen since I installed the Ximian dependencies
related to the new abiword. After a reboot, GNOME complains with the
following alert:
====
Desk Guide Alert
GNOME Desktop Guide (pager)
You are not running a GNOME compliant window manager. GNOME support by
the window manager is strongly recommended for proper desk guide
operation.
====
This came after installing the Ximian versions of gal-0.14,
gal-devel-0.14, gnome-print-0.31, gnome-print-devel-0.31, libgal14-0.14,
& libgnomeprint15-0.31. I guess that they're not getting along with
sawfish 0.36-7 or with other packages related to desktop control. I
erased them using "rpm -e", then downloaded the strict Redhat versions:
gal-0.8, gal-devel-0.8, gnome-print-devel-0.29, libgal7-0.8, &
libgnomeprint15-0.29. I installed those and rebooted and the problem
remains.
I'm about to download & install sawfish & sawfish-themer 0.38-11 (Redhat
7.2), but I thought I'd get this message off in case anyone knows more
about what I'm up against here.
