FreeBSD. The official GNOME 2.22 release notes can be found at
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/ . On the FreeBSD front,
this release features an updated hal port with support for video4linux
devices, DRM (Direct Rendering), and better support of removable media. Work
is also underway to tie webkit more closely into GNOME. As part of the
GNOME 2.22 upgrade, GStreamer received a rather large upgrade as well.
Be sure to consult UPDATING on the proper steps to upgrade all of your
GNOME ports.
This release would not have been possible without the contributions and
testing efforts of the following people:
Pawel Worach

portable screen reader. It works by opening a shell in a pty and
intercepting all user input/output, maintaining a window of what
should be on the screen by looking at the codes and text sent to the
screen. It thus uses no Linuxisms such as /dev/vcsa0 and does not
necessarily need to be setuid root (the only requirement being that
the user be able to access the tts device).

them to interface with Festival Lite, a free text-to-speech engine developed at
the CMU Speech Center as an off-shoot of Festival. EFlite is still in beta,
but I have been using it successfully with Yasr to get speech on my notebook
under Linux without having to lug my Speak-out around. It uses Festival Lite's
code to interface with the sound driver and, therefore, should work with some
versions of ALSA, but I have only tested it with the OSS sound drivers so far.

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

QT_COMPONENTS can now be depended on at runtime or buildtime only by
specifiying them as <component>_build or <component>_run, respectively.
Specifying <component> without any suffix will depend on the component
at both build- and runtime just like before.
- Convert Qt core ports to use the new dependency switches.
- Add a patch to corelib to fix Qt4 on ARM, submitted by:
Björn König <bkoenig@alpha-tierchen.de>
qt33 to ($binary)-qt4 and adjust dependencies accordingly. This
avoids conflicts once X11BASE has been changed to /usr/local and
incidentally makes the naming scheme of the qt4 executables in ports
equal to that of the Fedora Core and Debian packages.
- Fix the build [1], dependency and plist if audio/espeak is installed in the
system.
- Add a new knob, WITH_ESPEAK, with autocheck.
- Bump the PORTREVISION.

new features. Not that it doesn't have its share of new and exciting
items. See http://www.gnome.org/start/2.18/ for all the goodies in
this release.
GNOME 2.18 for FreeBSD would not have been possible without the hard work
of the FreeBSD GNOME Team and our intrepid band of testers including

Yoshihiro Ota, Vladimir Grebenschikov, Jukka A. Ukkonen,

-Fix categories which got mixed up during juggling with different

-Remove NO_FILTER_SHLIBS, which disappeared shortly before Qt4 was
committed.

amount of work by the FreeBSD GNOME Team and our testers.
On top of the usual GNOME update, we have taken this opportunity to move
GNOME from X11BASE to LOCALBASE. This means roughly 600 ports NOT part of
the GNOME Desktop also need to be changed. The bulk of the move was carried
out by ahze, mezz, and pav, but it would not have been possible without
cooperation from the FreeBSD KDE team who worked with us to make sure
GNOME and KDE can still coexist happily. We would also like to send a
shout out to kris and pointyhat for putting up with multiple test runs
until we got something that was solid.
Back to GNOME 2.16. This release brings a huge amount of new functionality
to FreeBSD. The standard release notes can be read at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/ . But on top of what you will read there,
jylefort and marcus have completed work on a port of HAL to FreeBSD. This
will allow FreeBSD to take advantage of closer hardware interaction such
as auto-mounting CD-ROMs, USB drives, and music players; auto-playing
audio CDs; and managing laptop power consumption.
But where would this all be without our loyal testers and contributors?

- Fix a few of pkg-descr by chase the rename.
- Move all PORTREVISION and PORTEPOCH to top with ?=.
- Put USE_X_PREFIX back in, but under REFERENCE_PORT, and remove PREFIX? and
USE_XLIB. This fix ports to use the correct mtree when you change the prefix,
for example:
Incorrect: (Without USE_X_PREFIX)
================================
# cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/gtk20
# make -V MTREE_FILE
/etc/mtree/BSD.x11-4.dist
# make PREFIX=/tmp/foo -V MTREE_FILE
/etc/mtree/BSD.local.dist <-- Here...
================================
Correct: (With USE_X_PREFIX)
================================
# cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/gtk20
# make -V MTREE_FILE
/etc/mtree/BSD.x11-4.dist
# make PREFIX=/tmp/foo -V MTREE_FILE
/etc/mtree/BSD.x11-4.dist <-- Here...
================================
- Change a several of *-reference ports to install in LOCALBASE instead
X11BASE, but only two gtkmm*-reference couldn't be change at the moment.
Bump the PORTREVISION for change prefix.

- use fixed plists [1]
- category "linux" added to those ports without it [1]
- update some ports to a recent FC3 one [1]
- remove plists/... for Alpha (there's no support since linux_base-8 for
Alpha anymore)
- don't hardcode version numbers in some plists, use PLIST_SUB instead
(any errors are mine, don't keep them, send them to me)
Regarding linux-ungif I declare a maintainer timeout (one month, Boris tried
to contact the maintainer) and also pull the "sweeping commit"-card (the
port which it uses as some kind of master port can not be used for this
anymore). Besides this, I don't think he will be upset when other people
do the work instead of adding an entry to his TODO list. :-)
This commit brings us just before the switch of the default linux base
port to the fc3 one, modulo some bugs which may appear. So:
Beta testers wanted!
To test:
sed -i.old -e 's:linux-XFree86-libs:linux-xorg-libs:' /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
echo OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=fc3 >> /etc/make.conf
portupgrade -f -o emulators/linux_base-fc3 -f linux_base-8
portupgrade -o x11/linux-xorg-libs linux-XFree86-libs
portupgrade linux-\*
The first two steps are necessary to switch to fc3 as the new default linux
base port, the last 3 steps to upgrade to fc3.
And feel free to send a big "Thank you!" to Boris, he did a lot of the work!
I just provided some hints and answered some questions (besides from
committing all the necessary changes for FC3 and doing some minor
changes+comments/improvements to/of his work), even when he tries to tell
you something else. ;-)

http://www.gnome.org/start/2.14/ for the official release notes, and a list
of all the gooides in this new release. In particular, GNOME 2.14 focused
on performance, and they did not miss the mark. There's some new eye candy,
but most of the big things are waiting until GNOME 2.16. On the FreeBSD
side, we tried to clean up all the crashers we could. In particular, we
really improved GNOME's 64-bit support.
The good news is that this release does not bring any big shared library
version bumps, so you can almost do a simple portupgrade to get to 2.14.
There are a few minor gotchas that will be documented in UPDATING shortly.
The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like th thank the following users for their
patches, feedback, and sometimes incessant complaing about crashes (you
know who you are).

in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
