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.

DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Make libgnome and libgnomeui not implying esound dependency
It has been a while both does not depend anymore on esound, before this change
esound dependency was wrongly added to plenty of packages which actually does
not depend on it.
While here:
- audio/glame: remove esound support
- games/monkeybubble: add an explicit dependency on esound
- sysutils/gnome-schedule: add en explicit dependency on pkg-config
- comms/kb: add missing dependency on pkgconfig
- x11-toolkits/libgnomeui:
* update to 2.4.5
* use USES=localbase
USES+= gettext-tools on 5 ports
These ports require msgfmt. FreeBSD doesn't fail to build these ports
because a default option on gvfs brings in this tool. The same gvfs
option is off by default on DragonFly and thus the missing dependencies
were unmasked. Explicitly add gettext-tools to get msgfmt.
In some straightforward situations, protect examples behind PORTEXAMPLES,
adding EXAMPLES to OPTIONS_DEFINE where necessary. In a couple instances,
correct examples being controlled by the DOCS option.
Support LIBS like LDFLAGS.
- Add LIBS="${LIBS}" to MAKE_ENV and CONFIGURE_ENV.
- Add an option helper for LIBS.
- Adjust all ports that already use LIBS. Also remove references to
PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS while here.
- Some ports did not support having a LIBS environment variable and
required additional patches.
Somewhat simplified a linker command line looks like:
${CC} ${src_LDFLAGS} ${LDFLAGS} ${src_LIBS} ${LIBS}
where src_LDFLAGS and src_LIBS are controlled by upstream and LDFLAGS and
LIBS can be controlled by us. If possible -L and -l flags need to be
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- Add LDFLAGS to CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV (as it was done with LDFLAGS)
- Fix all ports that add {CPP,LD}FLAGS to *_ENV to modify flags instead

-Repocopy devel/libtool15 -> libtool22 and libltdl15 -> libltdl22.
-Update libtool and libltdl to 2.2.6a.
-Remove devel/libtool15 and devel/libltdl15.
-Fix ports build with libtool22/libltdl22.
-Bump ports that depend on libltdl22 due to shared library version change.
-Explain what to do update in the UPDATING.
It has been tested with GNOME2, XFCE4, KDE3, KDE4 and other many wm/desktop
and applications in the runtime.

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT

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

Release my ports back into the wild.
Be free, little ports. May you all grow big and strong.
Except gnome-icons-edge. You should probably be nuked. Just sayin'.
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.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.
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.
Register conflict with gnomesu. The removal of gnomesu is being
considered, as its functionality appears to be encapsulated within
libgnomesu. Thoughts/opinions welcome.
