This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when
upgrading your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions,
but sometimes they are unavoidable.

You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each
time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port
upgrades.

  AFFECTS: users of GNOME
  AUTHOR: gnome@FreeBSD.org

  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.

  Switch GNOME 2.32 to GNOME 3.0 instructions:

  Make a list of your installed ports.
  pkg_delete -r glib-2.\*
  After go to x11/gnome3 and do make install clean.
  Install applications your missing from the list you made earlier.
