On reflection, providing anything other than USE_GNOME in bsd.gnome.mk was a mistake, and will be rectified soon. > > This *will* break with GNOME 1.4 -- please use USE_GNOME. > > How will this break with GNOME 1.4? More importantly why? :) Heavy duty restructuring of both GNOME itself, and the ports as a result. Some code disappearing, other stuff being added, and the whole enchilada (x11/gnome) being split up into chunks. Once the beta2 sourceballs come out, I'll finish off the updates, and you'll see what I mean -- I think I have a shot at largest number of ports upgraded in one commit :) -aDe -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX. ade@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD: The Power to Serve http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
