Hi!

As I said in my previous post there has been a large rearrange and
update to the Gtk+/GNOME part of the portage tree. This means that all
packages depending on imlib/Gtk+ has to be remerged. I'm sorry for this
but it had to be done, the sooner the better.


What should you do then?
========================

Update the portage tree:
emerge --clean rsync

(or if you are a developer):
cvs up -Pd

Unmerge:

- Everything from gnome-*
- x11-libs/[ gtk+ | gtk-engine | gtk-thinice-theme | gtkmm ]
- media-libs/[ gdk-pixbuf | imlib ]
- x11-wm/sawfish

In case there aren't any newer portage than 1.6.9 you need to edit
/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py to make it find the new category
gnome-extra.

Open the file in your favorit editor and locate where it says gnome-apps
and change it for gnome-extra.

To be sure remove /opt/gnome (rm -rf /opt/gnome). Log in and out again
to get rid of GNOME_PATH and other variables set to point to /opt/gnome.

After that you should be able to remerge GNOME. If you want our full
GNOME installation just emerge gnome-base/gnome/gnome-1.4-r3.ebuild.

Otherwise just emerge the applications you want.

I'll attach a list of were stuff from gnome-* has moved if you can't
find the new location of a package.
