GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and
contributors:
Yasuda Keisuke
Frank Jahnke
Pawel Worach
Brian Gruber

We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.
devel/distcc 2.16 -> 2.18.3
http://distcc.samba.org/ftp/distcc/distcc-2.18.3.NEWS
Consists mostly of bug fixes. Only one change in the way distcc
works. You must specify a network on which connections are
allowed, connections from all networks will still be admitted
but connections outside the specified network will be logged
and dropped.
The 127.0.0.0/8 network is the default for the port. All
existing users and all new users will need to update/add a
distccd_flags variable in /etc/rc.conf, a template for which
can be found in the rc.d script.
Perhaps a new variable, which simply contained the trusted
network address would be better, like
distccd_network="192.168.10.2/24"

I don't have the time to give to many of the ports I maintain at
the moment. I wasn't expecting to be so busy this summer ...
Please set all my ports back to ports@freebsd.org.

fix a bug in the devel/distcc which becomes obvious when
the port gets built without WITHOUT_GNOME, but when
HAVE_GNOME returns ""
