This knob was turned on for all version of FreeBSD in r369875
(2014-10-03) and officially deprecated. Since then, it was gradually
removed from many ports when they needed an update.
x11-servers/xorg-server was the last major user of this knob. The port
was updated to xserver 1.14 in r374982 (2014-12-19). The update got rid
of the knob, clearing the path to the final removal.
This commit changes ports who were checking for WITH_NEW_XORG and remove
its handling from bsd.port.mk.
While here, two sanity checks are added to warn user about WITH_KMS and
WITH_NEW_XORG which have no effect now.

Gnome 3.14.1 and Cinnamon 2.2.16 are supported on FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE and up.
This commit removes the old GNOME 2 desktop, bindings and some ports that
can't be compiled. A few ports where updated to more recent versions to
allow them to compile with this update.
Apart from updating ports to newer versions
GDM is more integrated with gnome-shell now, and handles several things for
the GNOME desktop such as screen locking. If you want to use GNOME 3 via
startx, you will have to add your own lock screen/screensaver. For example xscreensaver
can be used for sessions started without GDM.
Shell Extensions can be installed via https://extensions.gnome.org/ , we have
ported a few that can't be installed via this way.
The old gnome-utils and gnome-games ports where split up into single ports
and where converted to meta-ports.
gnome-terminal requires a UTF-8 locale to run, gdm handles this already, but
if you use startx you need to do this yourself.
Upgrade instructions:
Delete the old and conflicting packages:
# pkg delete clutter gnome-utils gnome-panel gnome-keyring vala-vapigen \
guile gcalctool gnome-media libgnomekbd
# pkg delete gnome-screensaver gnome-applets bug-buddy evolution-exchange \
evolution-webcal gnome-system-tools seahorse-plugins gnome-control-center
For package users the following lines will be enough:
# pkg upgrade
# pkg install gnome3
For ports users should do the following:
# portmaster -a
# portmaster x11/gnome3
We are currently aware of two issues. The first issue is a bug in the
file monitoring code in the glib20 port. This bug causes glib programs
to crash when files in a monitored directory are added or removed.
Upstream is aware of the problem, but since the problem is quite complex
there is no solution yet. This problem isn't restricted to BSD.
The second issue is that on certain video cards totem will display a
purple/pink overlay on the video. It not clear yet where the issues
comes from.
Major thanks goes to Gustau Perez for being a driving force behind getting
GNOME 3 up to speed again. Also thanks to Antoine Brodin for running the exp-runs.

This port failed to build with poudriere bulk -t because the directories
it tried to remove were considered part of MTREE (but its seems they only
belonged to dependencies to me).
Remove the entries from pkg-plist so it builds cleanly, but don't bother
to revbump because there's no practical change to the package.
Just Fix It.
- INSTALL_TARGET=install-strip
- Add CPPFLAGS and LIBS to fix problem with DATADIRNAME
- Rename DOC option to DOCS and install documentation in standard location
immodules.cache. gtk-query-immodules-2.0 has a new option,
--update-cache that does what we want too.
Use this new option.
While here, add stage support to non slave ports

with pkg
- Consistently use full path when running gtk-query-immodules as the path
is embedded in output (we prefer reproducible output)
This fixes leftovers reported by poudriere
