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
Franz Klammer
Yuri Pankov
Nick Barkas
Cristian KLEIN
Tony Maher
Scot Hetzel

QT_COMPONENTS can now be depended on at runtime or buildtime only by
specifiying them as <component>_build or <component>_run, respectively.
Specifying <component> without any suffix will depend on the component
at both build- and runtime just like before.
- Convert Qt core ports to use the new dependency switches.
- Add a patch to corelib to fix Qt4 on ARM, submitted by:
Björn König <bkoenig@alpha-tierchen.de>
qt33 to ($binary)-qt4 and adjust dependencies accordingly. This
avoids conflicts once X11BASE has been changed to /usr/local and
incidentally makes the naming scheme of the qt4 executables in ports
equal to that of the Fedora Core and Debian packages.
- Fix the build [1], dependency and plist if audio/espeak is installed in the
system.
- Add a new knob, WITH_ESPEAK, with autocheck.
- Bump the PORTREVISION.

releases in that it focuses more on stability and functionality than on
new features. Not that it doesn't have its share of new and exciting
items. See http://www.gnome.org/start/2.18/ for all the goodies in
this release.
GNOME 2.18 for FreeBSD would not have been possible without the hard work
of the FreeBSD GNOME Team and our intrepid band of testers including
J. W. Ballantine, Pawel Worach, Yasuda Keisuke, Pascal Hofstee, miwi,
Yoshihiro Ota, Vladimir Grebenschikov, Jukka A. Ukkonen,
Phillip Neumann, Franz Klammer, and Neal Delmonico.
-Fix categories which got mixed up during juggling with different
repos.
-Remove NO_FILTER_SHLIBS, which disappeared shortly before Qt4 was
committed.
Noticed by: erwin, pav
- Move qt4-codecs-tw to chinese [1]
- Add some missing quotes [1]
- From the "this never happened in the clean room" dept:
Disable session management support more universally to
avoid linktime errors.
[1] Spotted by: rafan
- More on PREFIX-cleaness.
- Remove databases/ruby-libgda and multimedia/ruby-gst, these ports are no
longer in the tarball and have been dropped support by the developers.
wrapper around the GNOME ATK toolkit.
It allows a developer to make python objects and applications
easily accessibility aware without the need to install PyGTK and
the GNOME accessibility components. Instead it only depends on ATK
and - on the developers behalf - the ATK/AT-SPI bridge shipped with
AT-SPI.
