amount of work by the FreeBSD GNOME Team and our testers.
On top of the usual GNOME update, we have taken this opportunity to move
GNOME from X11BASE to LOCALBASE. This means roughly 600 ports NOT part of
the GNOME Desktop also need to be changed. The bulk of the move was carried
out by ahze, mezz, and pav, but it would not have been possible without
cooperation from the FreeBSD KDE team who worked with us to make sure
GNOME and KDE can still coexist happily. We would also like to send a
shout out to kris and pointyhat for putting up with multiple test runs
until we got something that was solid.
Back to GNOME 2.16. This release brings a huge amount of new functionality
to FreeBSD. The standard release notes can be read at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/ . But on top of what you will read there,
jylefort and marcus have completed work on a port of HAL to FreeBSD. This
will allow FreeBSD to take advantage of closer hardware interaction such
as auto-mounting CD-ROMs, USB drives, and music players; auto-playing
audio CDs; and managing laptop power consumption.
But where would this all be without our loyal testers and contributors?
Therefore, the FreeBSD GNOME team would like to thank the following users:

building its own. Some years ago there was a security problem with
zlib-1.2.2 and firefox' configure checks the system's zlib.h to be
1.2.3 or higher.
FreeBSD patched the hole without bumping the version number, which
caused Firefox (and, likely, other Mozilla stuff) to build their own
versions instead (and install their headers).
Maintainers were repeatedly notified -- most recently about a month
ago: <200608091216.00510@aldan>, <200601251926.39246.mi+mx@aldan.algebra.com>.

SSL certificates work again. Somehow, this patch was lost in the big change,
so bring it back. Bump PORTREVISION on all of those ports.

- Add Makefile.common
o A new build/install system for gecko ports, Makefile.common
includes many generic routines and common tasks.
o Fix ld-run-path in all gecko's by using -Wl,-rpath,${moz_libdir}
thus removing the need to have a startup script for ports that
depend on gecko. [2]
o Use system libm, nss, nspr in all gecko ports
- Add bsd.gecko.mk
o This is the predecessor to WITH_MOZILLA=[mozilla|firefox|...]
with a more robust way of detecting a gecko a end user wishs to
use.
o bsd.gecko.mk abstracts the selection of gecko-based backends. It
allows users and porters to support any available gecko backend
without needing to build many conditional tests. ${USE_GECKO} is the
list of backends that your port can handle, and ${GECKO} is set by
bsd.gecko.mk to be the chosen backend. Users set ${WITH_GECKO} to the
list of gecko backends they want on their system.
Port Makefile example:
USE_GECKO=firefox mozilla seamonkey thunderbird
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
.include "${.CURDIR}/../../www/mozilla/bsd.gecko.mk"
End user example:
WITH_GECKO=seamonkey firefox
We highly recommend moving away from using WITH_MOZILLA and switching to
USE/WITH_GECKO.

extensions (in particular typeaheadfind breaks Find [go figure]). It is
safer to use a specific list of extensions with Firefox 1.0.x. It looks
like they've made this better in 1.5, and set a reasonable default list of
extensions.
Basically, we're back to the previous 1.0.7_1,1 set of extensions with the
addition of negotiateauth.

- Add Java 5 plugins support. [1]
- Use system's libm (/usr/src/lib/msun), nss, nspr and etc. Also, do
not extract those. Better explain, use external dependencies. [1]
- Teach firefox-config and *.pc files for nspr that will making other
third apps to buildable like epiphany, vlc-devel's mozilla plugins
and etc. Have been tested with full GNOME 2.11.x build too.
- Add four patches: [1]
patch-bugzilla243151:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243151
patch-jsosdep:
Fix the FreeBSD define
patch-oji-threads:
64-bit wide pthread_t
patch-xptcinvoke_x86_64_linux:
Setting a possibly uninitialized variable (value).
- Fix a crash that can occur using gtk+-2.7 and possibly 2.6.10 when closing
windows. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3002 [2]
- Get rid of FIREFOX and FF_VER, best to use PORTNAME and PORTVERSION
varibles that are arleady exist and lesser complicate.
- Change all hardcore of 'firefox' to PORTNAME.
- Change a manual loop for patch all.js to find(1), so we can sleep
on it.
