    What is new in GNOME &gnomever;?

    + +

    Although the canonical summary of new features can be found at + http://www.gnome.org/start/2.14/notes/en/, + some of the most exciting new features of GNOME &gnomever; are:

    + + + +
  2. + + +

    How do I upgrade to GNOME &gnomever;?

    + +

    The answer is much simpler than it has been in the past:

    + +
      +
    1. +

      To build GNOME &gnomever;, you need to obtain the latest + ports tree skeleton. This is most easily accomplished with + portsnap(8) or CVSup. Simply obtain the latest ports tree, and you are + ready to go. Then do the following:

      +
      +# pkgdb -Ff
      +# portupgrade -rf glib-2\* cairo gnome-doc-utils gnome-mime-data \
      +	  gnome-audio startup-notification dbus
      +	  
      + + +

      Then you can run portupgrade(8) as you normally + would. NOTE: it is recommended to run portupgrade + -a to make sure you get all the necessary ports.

      + +

      If you are a portmaster user, the following will + work: + +

      +# portmaster -r pkg-config\*
      +	  
      + +

      Then run portmaster normally.

      +
    +
  4. + + +
  5. +

    The upgrade failed; what do I do?

    + +

    Unfortunately, this is not only possible, it is highly probable. There are many possible + valid GNOME configurations, and even more invalid starting points. If the script fails, + follow the instructions in the error message to let the FreeBSD GNOME team know about the + failure.

    + +

    The majority of build failures will be dependency-related issues. One simple way to resolve + the problem is to remove the offending port, re-run portupgrade or portmaster, and then + reinstall the port when the upgrade process is complete.

    +

    List of GNOME &gnomever; problems and their solutions

    + +

    Although GNOME &gnomever; is certainly the best release to date (of course), there are + a couple regressions that slipped in, both in the GNOME code and in its implementation + within FreeBSD. Some of the more visible issues are:

    + +

    There are currently no known issues with GNOME + &gnomever;.

    +
  8. + + +
  9. +

    I have found a bug; whom should I alert?

    + +

    Please read the FreeBSD GNOME Project's + documentation on reporting bugs. +

    +

    I want the fame and glory of being part of the FreeBSD GNOME team! + What can I do to participate?
