ever. It fixes many bugs, and adds some features missing in previous
FreeBSD ports. To help users upgrade from GNOME 2.4, we have constructed an
upgrade FAQ at:
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq26.html
Please read it carefully. GNOME 2.6 packages are also available for all
supported i386 versions of FreeBSD at:

The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like the thank the following users for their
wonderful testing and patching efforts. We would especially like to thank
Franz Klammer <klammer@webonaut.com> for his wonderful new splash screen.
Without these people, our team, and our team alumni, GNOME on FreeBSD would
not be possible.

recommended:
- Fixed CAN-2003-0793, a local DoS, the socket connection is now non-blocking
and limitted to the number of commands
- Fixed CAN-2003-0794, a local DoS, the line length is limitted
to 4096 bytes (note, this was not a buffer overrun).

Without these contirbuters, and our faithful users, GNOME 2.4.0 would not
be possible.
Please check the FreeBSD GNOME site for any FreeBSD gotchas, as well as
general FAQs and documentation (GNOME 2.4 updates to be posted soon). The
best way to upgrade so that you get all shared library dependencies is:
portupgrade -rf -m BATCH=yes atk
portupgrade -R -m BATCH=yes gnome2

Special thanks goes to Glenn Johnson <gjohnson@srrc.ars.usda.gov> for
tracking this down. Apparently, newer versions of libtool have code
to prevent -lc_r from being passed to the linker on _all_ versions of
FreeBSD. Since ${PTHREAD_LIBS} is set to -lc_r for 5.x, this causes
massive problems with threaded applications.
be created even if BATCH is defined. Also, set PKG_PREFIX from the port
Makefile so we can take care of directory permissions within the
pkg-install script for both the port and package.

comes to gdm2. Change USE_LIBTOOL back to GNU_CONFIGURE, and remove the
associated configure hack. This fixes an ld crash on Alpha, and doesn't seem
to have any adverse effects on x86, either.
Special thanks to Aaron Schroeder <Aaron.Schroeder@qg.com> for letting
me use his Alpha workstation to track this down.
The RELEASE_5_0_0 tag should be adjusted to take this change.

* Add a -m to the killall line in the RC script [1]

then gdmaskpass will be built (i.e. on -stable). If not, then gdmaskpass
will not be built, and the plist needs to be updated accordingly.
Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a __FreeBSD_version that coincides
with OpenPAM.
