Why can't I get GNOME stop calling home? (on a Debian installation) Each time I fire up my Debian VM with GNOME here on my OSX host system Little Snitch pops up because some weird connection to a GNOME web endpoint. One major pet peeve of mine.

You can ask the gnome team if they'd accept a patch. They might be of the idea that patching stuff out is bad.
