[gentoo-dev] introducing gnome.org.eclass

Hello folks.
gnome.eclass is very simple so far, and should probably stay that way.
So far it only sets SRC_URI for the package, in a dynamic way and should
work with both gnome and gnome2.


gnome2.eclass inherits gnome.org.eclass

all things that are on the gnome ftp need not use SRC_URI but could just
as well "inherit gnome.org" 


this is done in comparsion to "kde.org.eclass"  :)

thanks, thats all folks.

It seems I was a bit unclear on technicalities here:

To avoid a lot of "digest" mitchmatch and unnecessary re-downloads, We
put our faith in our mirrors and dont update the Gnome 1.4 ebuilds until
theres a new release out (1.4.1 is impeding), and only update that when
we otherways touch an ebuild.  to go though all of them at this point
and changing most from .tar.gz to .tar.bz2 is .. unncessary.
