Yeah, I'm necro'ing a thread, but so what.

If the build-chain is there, you should be able to compile whatever DE you want.

I would expect something lightweight and with low dependencies as a default, but I'm pretty flexible.

Compiling GNOME, of any stripe, has always been a nightmare. I doubt Gnome3 is any better than previous versions of Gnome. With Gnome3 and KDE5 becoming more and more reliant on SystemD internals, I'd be fine with neither being supported, but I'm probably a major outlier.
