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:

Update of irc/ircd-ratbox port from ircd-ratbox-2.2.5 to ircd-ratbox-2.2.6
[patch] port upgrade for irc/ratbox-services
Update of irc/ratbox-services port from ratbox-services-1.0.3 to ratbox-services-1.1.2
Removal of irc/ircd-ratbox-devel
The ircd-ratbox-devel port is depreciated and installs an
out-dated version of ircd-ratbox. There is no current
development release of ircd-ratbox; please could this port
be deleted as the ratbox team are some time away from
releasing a new development version.
[Note that irc/ircd-ratbox-devel was synced with irc/ircd-ratbox]

From UPDATING:
By popular request, OPTIONS support has been added. When actived
(default), these knobs are ignored:
* WITH_<CATEGORY>_MODULES
* WITHOUT_<CATEGORY>_MODULES
* WITH_CUSTOM_<CATEGORY>
* WITH_MODULES
* WITHOUT_MODULES
* WITH_STATIC_MODULES
However, you can disable OPTIONS by defining WITHOUT_APACHE_OPTIONS.

Changes include:
- Set WITH_GHOSTSCRIPT_GNU forcibly.
- Use PostScript virtual fonts to handle CJK CID/TT-CID emulated fonts.
CIDFnmap still works but when a font is both in Resource/Font or
Resource/CIDFont and in CIDFnmap, the former entry will be used.
For the actual font mapping, see files in Resource/CIDFont/*.
So, note that you need to remove (or rename) the virtual font if you use
CIDFnmap for the moment. This is still a transitional measure and
more consistent font management thoughout the ports collection should
be added later.
This is just an internal structural change; default font mapping has
not been changed.
- Add Chinese font support to print/gsfonts (but no dependency added).
of japanese/ptex has been removed and japanese/ptex-tetex has been
renamed with japanese/ptex. These are almost the same with each other
(actually ptex-tetex had some upper compatibility with ptex), so there
should be no functionality regression.
Also, dependencies of the relevant ports have been updated and
PORTREVISON bumped.

fluxbox-devel. The 0.1.14 version is gone for good. The highlight changes for
fluxbox:
-Update to 1.0rc2.
-Change the prefix from X11BASE (/usr/X11R6) to LOCALBASE (/usr/local).
-The bsetroot has been renamed to fbsetroot.
As for the other ports, chase the fluxbox-devel -> fluxbox.

The py-libdnet port has been seperated out as a slave port to libdnet and
is now dependent on libdnet. py-libdnet now only installs the libdnet
python module. Since files previously owned by py-libdnet are now owned
by its dependency, in order to upgrade correctly, py-libdnet must be
deinstall and then reinstalled manually.

- Now, lang/python is just a meta-port which depends on lang/python25.
- And all versions of Python ports have short version identifier in its
package name; python25-2.5, python24-2.4.3 and etc.
- Also you must upgrade all python modules after lang/python updated,
cd /usr/ports/lang/python && make upgrade-site-packages
- Give maintainership of Python ports to the new python@ group which
includes me, alexbl@ and others.

- Install man page
- Make krb5_ccname option in nss_ldap.conf work
nss_ldap has two different arguments that can be used at compile time to
make this work. The --enable-configurable-krb5-ccname-env configure
option was chossen because it works with both the Heimdal and MIT
Kerberos implementations and does not require a kerberos dependency. A
note has been made in UPDATING that this now works because
misconfiguration can lockout users.

- by default, textproc/aspell installs the English dictionaries (no
change);
- thereafter you can install any foreign dictionary;
- when you install a foreign dictionary, i.e. french/aspell or
textproc/da-aspell, it installs only the dictionaries, and depends
upon textproc/aspell for the programs;
- if you don't need the English dictionaries, you can define
WITHOUT_DICTEN or install textproc/aspell-without-dicten;
- add a new port for textproc/en-aspell: if aspell had been installed
without the English dictionaries, they can be added thereafter;
- add a missing port for german/alt-aspell;
- foreign dictionaries are almost independent from textproc/aspell,
and their maintainership is available.
