yes, because CSWgnome is just a "stub" - an empty package which contains 
only a list of dependencies. In this case, it contains the list of all 
the packages needed to get the full gnome environment: that's to easier 
the life of users who want to have all gnome just by typing "pkg-get -i 
gnome".
