libgnomesu is a library for providing superuser privileges to GNOME
applications. It supports consolehelper, PAM and su.

libgnomesu will use one the following services (in order of priority),
depending on which one is available:
- consolehelper
- PAM
- su

libgnomesu will use the su-based backend as final fallback, if no other
services are available. This service uses a backend which is a modified
version of GNU su.

libgnomesu comes with the GUI frontend 'gnomesu' and a Nautilus component
for Nautilus integration.

Presenting GNOME 2.20.1 and all related works for FreeBSD.  The official
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

- Welcome X.org 7.2 \o/.
- Set X11BASE to ${LOCALBASE} for recent ${OSVERSION}.
- Bump PORTREVISION for ports intalling files in ${X11BASE}.

Remove obsolete CONFLICTS line for gnomesu.

Release my ports back into the wild.

Conversion to a single libtool environment.

- Add SHA256

Requested by:   adamw (maintainer)

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order.  The code present
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.

Instruct 4.x users to append the sample gnomesu-pam to /etc/pam.conf,

Extra super OMFG-I'd-be-screwed-without-you thanks to marcus for the
sleuthing here.

- Stop libgnomesu from causing 4.x machines to catch fire and break
  all your dishes.

- Don't install stuff into /etc/pam.d by default.

- Install example "gnomesu-pam"s, and include a pkg-message explaining
  what to do with them (HINT: copy the appropriate one into /etc/pam.d
  and name it gnomesu-pam).

- Fix a double-free.

With these fixes, the gnomeu binary in libgnomesu provides a much more
comprehensive GNOME su frontend, and the Great Red Eye of Adamwdor is
now turned towards sysutils/gnomesu.

With my portmgr hat on, mark this port IGNORE on 4.X as it will corrupt
your PAM configuration, and cause subsequent logins to fail.  The
maintainer has been notified.

Fix build on >4.x.

Author rerolled distfile with an updated NEWS entry.
