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:

is added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, to allow for the case where compatxx is
installed but compatxx_enable is not set in /etc/rc.conf (required to add
the directory to ldconfig with the new compat ports).
This allows Opera to run from a clean install on FreeBSD 5.x or 6.x again,
without needing changes to /etc/rc.conf.

-Bump the PORTREVISION for add a dependency.
It's kind of shame that Opera needs libXm.so.2, but we have libXm.so.3 in the
ports tree since 2002. The Linux version supports 1 to 3 but on FreeBSD
version only support 1 to 2 that aren't exist in the ports tree. Speak of
open-motif; not lesstif. Three ways to do: Create a new downgrade port of
open-motif, add a symlink of libXm.so.2 in current open-motif or tell the
users to use the libmap.conf for libXm.so.2 -> libXm.so.3? Any suggest?
BTW: libXm.so.x is need for the plugins function.

- The maintainer has asked me to babysitting this while he's away for
vacation. He is gone for about five weeks started last Thursday.
- Some tweak with the plugins, I have added jdk13 and jdk14 support
but I have no idea if they will work since I don't have any FreeBSD
4.x to test. Please let me know if there has any issue.
- Does the spellcheck feature works in FreeBSD 4.x? Please, contract
me on this one too. If it works, then I will need to add a dependency
of aspell with a new WITHOUT_ASPELL knob.
- See the changelog for detail:

www/linux-opera:
- I didn't update it to 7.52, because it still doesn't fix the security
and the plugins was broke. The 7.53 has solved all of this to allow
me to update it.
- Please read in pkg-message about the changes of search.ini if you
have a custom of it. You will have to edit it or it will not work.
- See the changelog for detail:
7.52 = http://www.opera.com/linux/changelogs/752/

<Note>
The file search.ini has been changed to ensure correct default
addresses for dictionary and encyclopedia searches. Existing
versions will be overwritten on upgrade. Users who have a
customized search.ini file that they would like to keep,
should edit its version number to 4 before upgrading. Note
that you have to edit the search.ini file located in the
/profile folder (Windows) or the /.opera folder.
