This release brings initial PackageKit support, Upower (replaces power
management part of hal), cuse4bsd integration with HAL and cheese, and a
faster Evolution.
Sadly GNOME 2.30.x will be the last release with FreeBSD 6.X support. This
will also be the last of the 2.x releases. The next release will be the
highly-anticipated GNOME 3.0 which will bring with it a new UI experience.
Currently, there are a few bugs with GNOME 2.30 that may be of note for our
users. Be sure to consult the UPGRADING note or the 2.30 upgrade FAQ at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq230.html for specific upgrading
instructions, and the up-to-date list of known issues.
This release features commits by avl, ahze, bland, marcus, mezz, and myself.
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to thank Anders F Bjorklund for doing the
initual packagekit porting.

Officially, this is mostly a polishing release in preparation for GNOME 3.0
due in about a year.
On the FreeBSD front, though, a lot went into this release. Major thanks
goes to kwm and avl who did a lot of the porting work for this release.
In particular, kwm brought in Evolution MAPI support for better Microsoft
Exchange integration. Avl made sure that the new gobject introspection
repository ports were nicely compartmentalized so that large dependencies
aren't brought in wholesale.
But, every GNOME team member (ahze, avl, bland, kwm, mezz, and myself)
contributed to this release.
Other major improvements include an updated HAL with better volume
probing code, ufsid integration, and support for volume names containing
spaces (big thanks to J.R. Oldroyd); a new WebKit; updated AbiWord;
an updated Gimp; and a preview of the new GNOME Shell project (thanks to
Pawel Worach).
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to that the following additional
contributors to this release whose patches and testing really helped
make it a success:
Andrius Morkunas
Dominique Goncalves
Eric L. Chen
J.R. Oldroyd
Joseph S. Atkinson
Li
Pawel Worach
Romain Tartière
Thomas Vogt
Yasuda Keisuke
Rui Paulo
Martin Wilke
(and an extra shout out to miwi and pav for pointyhat runs)
We would like to send this release out to Alexander Loginov (avl) in
hopes that he feels better soon.

http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.26/ for a list of what's new.
On the FreeBSD front, we introduced a port of libxul 1.9 as an alternative
for Firefox 2.0 as a Gecko provider. Almost all of the Gecko consumers
can make use of this provider by setting:
WITH_GECKO=libxul
The GNOME 2.26 port was done by ahze, kwm, marcus, and mezz with
contributions by Joseph S. Atkinson, Peter Wemm, Eric L. Chen,
Martin Matuska, Craig Butler, and Pawel Worach.

mailing list emails for report a few of build and dependencies problems.
Also, thanks to marcus and Chess Griffin for test in their tinderboxes.
x11/pixman: Update to 0.10.0
-------------------------------------------------------
Firefox 3 needs it. Orignal, the shared library was bumped and ahze has
added a new feature in our USE_GNOME=ltverhack by can control the number
of shared library. To control the number of shared library, add the
ltverhack:N. Right now pixman has USE_GNOME=ltverhack:9 to make it stays
same at libpixman-1.so.9. If anyone want to use ltverhack:N in one of your
port, you need to make sure the ABI doesn't change to use it..
-------------------------------------------------------
graphics/cairo: Update to 1.6.4
-------------------------------------------------------
Firefox 3 needs it. We have updated most cairo binding ports too.
-------------------------------------------------------
graphics/poppler: Update to 0.8.3
-------------------------------------------------------
The shared libraries version have been changed. All ports that depend on
poppler have PORTREVISION bump. The graphics/py-poppler has been updated
to 0.8.1 to work with newer poppler better. As for the poppler-qt, there
is no shared library version change.
-------------------------------------------------------
www/firefox3 and gecko ports related: Update to 3.0 final
-------------------------------------------------------
The bsd.gecko.mk has been moved from www/mozilla/ to Mk/. You no longer
need to include bsd.gecko.mk/Makefile.common by manual. We are keeping it
in backward compatibility, so the rest ports won't be break. We haven't
add some other ports to have Firefox 3 support yet, so feel free to send
us patch or commit it by yourself (to committers). However, view in
bsd.gecko.mk for document.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency

The sysutils/tracker port is now a meta port and tracker is now split into
separate ports to allow non-GNOME users to install tracker without pulling
in GNOME components. To upgrade please use the directions below.
portmaster users:
portmaster -o sysutils/tracker-client tracker
portmaster -u sysutils/tracker
portupgrade users:
portupgrade -o sysutils/tracker-client tacker
portupgrade -u sysutils/tracker

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

-Remove a patch and use gnomehack instead.
-The '--mandir=' is no longer need, taken care by gnomeprefix.
-Clean up a bit in Makefile to make it readable.
-Update the WWW.
Tracker is a powerful desktop-neutral first class object database, tag/metadata
database, search tool and indexer.
Tracker is also extremely fast and super efficient with your systems memory when
compared with some other competing frameworks and is by far the fastest and most
memory efficient Nautilus search and Deskbar backends currently availble.
It consists of a common object database that allows entities to have an almost
infinte number of properties, metadata (both embedded/harvested as well as user
definable), a comprehensive database of keywords/tags and links to other
entities.
