Upgrading 9.1's gnome 2.4 to -current 2.6.

What packages should I download and upgrade from the current tree to make this work correctly? I'm thinking:

/a
/ap
/l
/x

Then /gnome of course. Am I missing anything?

I just did a fresh install, I don't feel like doing that again. A lot of people have problems with swaret. I don't because I dont use it.

Here is the list I get from Swaret. However, it may have some deps that wouldnt show up until after it checked for them after the install. I will say that one item it didn't upgrade until it checked for deps was shared-mime and startup-notification. anywhooo, here are the files... also, I am sure you notice that there are some files listed such as Totem and abiword that are not 100% needed.
