GNOME 3.0 has been added to the ports tree. GNOME 3.0 and 2.32 desktop
components are mutual exclusive. If you want to stick around with GNOME 2.32
- you will not have to do anything. However if you want to switch to GNOME 3.0,
- you should follow the instructions below. GNOME 3.0 is based on GTK 3. We
- did our best to test excisting Gtk 2 based programs, but we couldn't test
- them all. Please let us know at gnome@FreeBSD.org if you experiance problems.
+ The instructions are very simple.
+
+ # pkg_delete -f avahi-gtk-\* gtk-2.\*
+ # portmaster x11-toolkits/gtk20 net/avahi-gtk

+ If you want to start using the GNOME 3.0 desktop. you should follow the
+ instructions below. GNOME 3.0 is based on GTK 3, but Gtk 2 applications
+ should work without any problems with the GNOME 3 desktop.
+ However should you run into a application that won't compile or give any kind
+ of trouble let us know at gnome@FreeBSD.org and we will take a look at it.
Switch GNOME 2.32 to GNOME 3.0 instructions:
Make a list of your installed ports.
- pkg_delete -r glib-2.\*
