GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and
contributors:
Yasuda Keisuke
Frank Jahnke
Pawel Worach

- Switch to partially dynamic plist:
autogeneration for docs (they change often) while rest is handled with PLIST_* vars
PR: ports/109541
Submitted by: maintainer (Marcin Wisnicki)
instead of building our own versions.
The bundled qtools/ can be removed too, but that will make the port
always depend on Qt (hence X11), which it currently avoids.
Approved by: maintainer timeout (13 days)
fancyhdr's \footrulewidth has always been documented using
\renewcommand (as opposed to \setlength), and the LaTeX from teTeX 2.x
barfs about it otherwise.
This is merely a stop-gap measure until the maintainer finds the time
to upgrade the doxygen port to a current version.
- had to redo the way to build the postscript doc. the old way
didn't work anymore; latex would bomb out.
2. Fix pkg-plist for kdesdk-3.0.4. This one kinda fell through the cracks
when I was rushing to get the 3.0.4 ports out there.
o switch maintainership to Dave Chapeskie <dchapes@ddm.wox.org>.
