Yes, but we should not force user to install Gnome just because
he wants to run Mozilla. Mozilla should be available in the
Gnome-free environment (KDE for example) as well.

I supposed that it is obvious: just replace all
gdk_pixbuf.1:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/gdk-pixbuf lines in LIB_DEPENDS
with gnomecanvaspixbuf.1:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/gnomecanvas. This
will provide 1:1 mapping between old and new layout. After that,
ports that only need gdk-pixbuf but not gnomecanvas have to be
identified and ajusted accordingly.
