It's built with GNOME 1 only as a lazy man's way out of having two ports. This will change when the GNOME 1 desktop is removed....soon. >=20 > In general, I'm wondering, when a software package supports both gnome1 a= nd > gnome2, should we be supporting both versions or stick with gnome1 for th= e > time being? It depends. Right now, we try to support both if the application has two sustaining branches (e.g. gnumeric, AbiWord, etc.). For ports that simply switch from GNOME 1 to GNOME 2, so do we (e.g. dia, gaim, etc.).=20 Given that GNOME 2 is becoming much more mature, I think it's time we ditch the GNOME 1 desktop. My thought is to remove=20 gnomecore sawfish gnomeapplets=20 gnomemedia gtop libgtop nautilus gedit xalf bugbuddy gnomegames gnomeutils gdm eog ggv Plus libpanel and everything that requires it.
