Most of defaults ought to werx... note I didn't write the profile spells
they just dependn on the whole sections so I have no clue what they do...
The ones I plan on writing will be very restrictive as to assure that there
will indeed be libs that are acctually needed in there...

casting xorg-server should get you within a reasonable working X install
WITHOUT any drivers and maybe a missing depend here and there though
from what I can tell only the drivers are really missing now.

The dirvers require runtime_depends to be buildable...
