ports which makes possible the direct translation of Cabal package
descriptions to FreeBSD ports. It promises both easier addition and
maintenance for Cabal-based ports.
release can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.30/ .
This release brings initial PackageKit support, Upower (replaces power
management part of hal), cuse4bsd integration with HAL and cheese, and a
faster Evolution.
Sadly GNOME 2.30.x will be the last release with FreeBSD 6.X support. This
will also be the last of the 2.x releases. The next release will be the
highly-anticipated GNOME 3.0 which will bring with it a new UI experience.
Currently, there are a few bugs with GNOME 2.30 that may be of note for our
users. Be sure to consult the UPGRADING note or the 2.30 upgrade FAQ at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq230.html for specific upgrading
instructions, and the up-to-date list of known issues.
This release features commits by avl, ahze, bland, marcus, mezz, and myself.
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to thank Anders F Bjorklund for doing the
initual packagekit porting.

* a bugfix that closes a memory leak triggered by corrupted PAR2 files.
That fix is included in some linux vendors' libpar2 packages, and is
well-tested.
* The other adds additional functionality: a method to cancel a file
repair in progress. This patch can be disabled through a config option.
It is enabled by default because the only application in the ports tree
that links against libpar2 is news/nzbget. Nzbget makes use of this
functionality if it is available.

* Fix the build framework so it can successfully #define a wrapper for
stat() on those systems where namei() behaves strangely--independent
of architecture.
Version: lbzip2-0.23
Focus: Minor feature enhancements
Date: 03-Mar-2010
Changes: In this release, if lbzip2 intends to exit with status 1 due to any
fatal error, but any SIGPIPE or SIGXFSZ with inherited SIG_DFL action
was generated for lbzip2 previously, then lbzip2 terminates by way of
one of said signals, after cleaning up any interrupted output file.
This should improve compatibility with GNU tar, when it spawns lbzip2
as a filter, and closes the pipe between them early, before it
receives an EOF from lbzip2.
