Looks like cinepaint doesn't have any GNOME dependencies, and also no HAL
dependency.  Now if I can just learn how to do everything I know how to
do in GIMP, I'll be set for that piece.

I don't use dia very often (it's for diagrams).  Gnumeric I use more
frequently (for spreadsheets).  I hate having to start up that monolithic
libreoffice just to do a spreadsheet, but that would be a HAL-free alternative.

Thanks to everyone who has responded so far.
