+who previously started <c>gnome-volume-manager</c> with non-Gnome desktops are

+strongly advised to make sure that this use flag is not turned on, as it will

+<p>
+With GNOME 2.22 a few packages were split into two, to allow other applications
+to use the previously internal libraries. For example the playlist parser
+library found in totem is now split out of it into dev-libs/totem-pl-parser,
+so that rhythmbox can depend on it without depending on the whole of totem.
+</p>
+<p>
+All this results in blockers having to be in place between the packages to
+avoid file collissions. To workaround it, simply follow the appropriate
+instructions in the
+<uri link="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?full=1#blocked">handbook</uri>
+as instructed by portage. In particular, temporarily unmerge the conflicting
+package and continue as normal, getting the unmerged package back soon via
+the meta package or other GNOME parts depending on it.

<title>GNOME no longer available as a session option in GDM</title>
<body>
-<note>
-This section should only concern users of the GNOME overlay. Users who have been using GNOME 2.22 from Portage should be fine.
-</note>
-
-<p>
-GDM uses the files available in /usr/share/xsessions/* to figure out which desktop environment options the user will be able to select from the "Sessions" menu.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-In GNOME 2.20, the file /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop was installed by GDM, which causes a lot of headaches. For instance, if you want to use another login manager (such as KDM or Entrance) capable of reading .desktop files but still use a GNOME session, you would have to install GDM even if you never used it.
-</p>
-
<p>
-In GNOME 2.22, that small issue was fixed and the gnome.desktop file is now installed by gnome-base/gnome-session (which is the actual program launched by the login manager to start GNOME).
+GDM uses the files available in /usr/share/xsessions/* to determine which
+desktop environments the user has installed and will be able to select from
+the "Sessions" menu.
</p>
<p>
-The problem is that Portage can sometimes fail to handle file collisions properly (file collisions happen when to packages install the same files) and may delete the gnome.desktop file altogether. To fix the issue, just remerge gnome-base/gnome-session.
+The appropriate file for GNOME is now provided by gnome-base/gnome-session-2.22
+instead of gnome-base/gdm, and due to this there are appropriate package
+blockers in place to avoid file collissions leading to this session file
+getting lost. The only thing that can go bad is that gnome-session does not
+get upgraded to 2.22 after it was uninstalled to resolve the gdm upgrade
+blocker. The symptom would be the lack of a GNOME choice in the GDM
+"Sessions" menu, in which case please check that you have gnome-session-2.22.0
+or newer installed. Note that this problem can not happen to gnome-base/gnome
+meta package users, as it will pull in the appropriate gnome-session package
+again.

Slight rewording of the pam-base related section. Remove the GDM-2.22 block completely - I see no reason to bother the majority of users (who probably don't care about the inner
technical decisions from upstream and other distributions) with all these details in a document that is supposed to help with upgrading what's there to upgrade.

<section>
<title>Seahorse key manager</title>
<body>
<p>
Starting with 2.22, Seahorse (app-crypt/seahorse) is the blessed key and
password manager, replacing the old and tired Gnome Keyring Manager
(gnome-extra/gnome-keyring-manager). It handles both GPG and SSH keys, and can
be also used to manage the passwords saved in your Gnome keyring.
</p>
</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>PAM and Gnome Keyring integration</title>
<body>
<p>
Starting with Gnome 2.20, Gnome Keyring (gnome-base/gnome-keyring) started
providing a PAM module (pam_keyring.so) to automatically unlock your keyring as
you log in to your session, thereby saving you the trouble from typing two
passwords.
</p>
<p>
In Gnome 2.22, this feature is now even more easily configured, thanks to
sys-auth/pambase that sports a shiny gnome use flag. With this flag enabled,
the pam configuration files in /etc/pam.d/ will automatically have
pam_keyring.so inserted in the right places. Just remember to use "etc-update"
or "dispatch-conf" after installing pambase to update those files.
</p>

<section>
<title>GDM 2.20 and 2.22</title>
<body>
<p>
For a few years, there have been various people kicking around the idea to
rewrite GDM for a lot of different reasons (maintainability, new features,
customizations, ...). That rewrite started last summer, and the GDM team
decided that 2.22 would be based on that new code.
</p>
<p>
Unfortunately, that code still is not ready for production use (at the time of
writing, it is in an alpha stage) so the Gnome release managers decided not to
include GDM 2.22 for Gnome 2.22, but to ship GDM 2.20 instead. Ubuntu and
Mandriva are both going to be using GDM 2.20 for their Spring 2008 releases, we
also decided to include that version in portage.
</p>
<p>
During the Gnome 2.23/2.24 testing cycle, we will probably package the new GDM
if we feel that the featureset is consistent with the old version and that
migration does not come with too high a price.
</p>

<section>
<title>Gnome no longer available as a session option in GDM</title>
<body>
<p>
GDM uses the files available in /usr/share/xsessions/* to figure out which desktop environment options the user will be able to select from the "Sessions" menu.
</p>
<p>
In Gnome 2.20, the file /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop was installed by GDM, which causes a lot of headaches. For instance, if you want to use another login manager (such as KDM or Entrance) capable of reading .desktop files but still use a Gnome session, you would have to install GDM even if you never used it.
</p>
<p>
In Gnome 2.22, that small issue was fixed and the gnome.desktop file is now installed by gnome-base/gnome-session (which is the actual program launched by the login manager to start Gnome).
</p>
<p>
The problem is that Portage can sometimes fail to handle file collisions properly (file collisions happen when to packages install the same files) and may delete the gnome.desktop file altogether. To fix the issue, just remerge gnome-base/gnome-session.
