The FreeBSD GNOME team presents a Glib and Gtk+ 3 update.

This update updates Glib20 to 2.36 and Gtk+ 3.8

* The gio-fam-backend port that used gamin for the GFileMonitor API is gone.
  It is replaced by a GIO kqueue implementation developed as part of a NetBSD
  GSoC 2011 project by Dimitry Matveev.
* Fix a bug in the glib20 Makefile so it includes -lintl in the glib-2.0
  pkgconfig file [1]. This broke static linking and newer binutils.
* Add introspection USE_GNOME component which sets GI_SCANNER_DISABLE_CACHE to
  prevent creation of /  root/.cache dir. Defaults to build & run depend,
  but :build and :run switches available.
* New x11-toolkits/pangox-compat port and companion USE_GNOME component for
  pangox support which was removed from the pango port. Add it to ports still
  using pangox API.

Presenting GNOME 2.30.1 for FreeBSD. The offical release notes for this
release can be found at http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.30/ .

This release brings initial PackageKit support, Upower (replaces power
management part of hal), cuse4bsd integration with HAL and cheese, and a
faster Evolution.

Sadly GNOME 2.30.x will be the last release with FreeBSD 6.X support. This
will also be the last of the 2.x releases. The next release will be the
highly-anticipated GNOME 3.0 which will bring with it a new UI experience.

Currently, there are a few bugs with GNOME 2.30 that may be of note for our
users. Be sure to consult the UPGRADING note or the 2.30 upgrade FAQ at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq230.html for specific upgrading
instructions, and the up-to-date list of known issues.

This release features commits by avl, ahze, bland, marcus, mezz, and myself.

The FreeBSD GNOME Team would like to thank Anders F Bjorklund for doing the
initual packagekit porting.
