* From: Jeremy Lea <reg@shale.csir.co.za>
* Here are a couple more GNOME ports like this. These files are site
* specific configuration files, but they should not be edited. They are
* used by the configure scripts of the ports which depend on them, to find
* libs and correct flags. They are like (and used by) the *-config files.
*
* However, they are not executables, so the choice is etc/ or share/gnome.
* Since some of the ports install into ${LOCALBASE} before there is a
* /share/gnome (ORBit, libghttp, libxml) the only real choice is etc/.
Why can't they mkdir ${LOCALBASE}/share/gnome themselves? :)
