XFCE upgrade wants to install Gnome 3

Hello.

i have this problem, i execute pacman -Syu and it says it wants to install gnome-desktop 3 and other gnome-related programs. But i'm using XFCE, i don't know why this is happening. Could it have something to do with me having the network-manager-applet?

Thanks

Hi.

Thanks but network-manager-applet doesn't depend on gnome-desktop. i searched and it was because i had gnome-teak-tool installed. Removing it solved the problem, gnome-desktop doesn't appear anymore when doing -Syu. Thanks
