Without these contirbuters, and our faithful users, GNOME 2.4.0 would not
be possible.
Please check the FreeBSD GNOME site for any FreeBSD gotchas, as well as
general FAQs and documentation (GNOME 2.4 updates to be posted soon). The
best way to upgrade so that you get all shared library dependencies is:
portupgrade -rf -m BATCH=yes atk
portupgrade -R -m BATCH=yes gnome2
Approved by: portmgr (kris, will, myself implicitly)
Requested by: re as well as many other users
registered. This came about when testing that the Help feature worked
in Gnumeric 2. This fix looks correct, and I tested numerous bonobo apps
to very they still worked. However, if people run into problems where
application components suddenly can't be found, let me know.
The GNOME 2.0 APIs can be installed right along with the GNOME 1.4 APIs, but
the desktops will be mutually independent. That is, you will not be
able to install gnomedesktop, for example, on the same machine as gnomecore.
However, you will be able to install the GNOME 2.0 desktop, and use all your
favorite GNOME 1.4 applications (like gaim, AbiWord, Evolution, etc.).
