**NOTE: this change requires you to take action only if you want the development versions of mozilla. Mozilla will now default to using GTK2, and will only compile against Gtk+-1.2 if explicitly requested. This is in exact opposite to the old behaviour. The valid values of WITH_MOZILLA are now: mozilla (www/mozilla, GTK2) mozilla-devel (www/mozilla-devel, GTK2) mozilla-gtk1 (www/mozilla-gtk1, GTK1) mozilla-devel-gtk1 (www/mozilla-devel-gtk1, GTK1) As before, WITH_MOZILLA can be set in /etc/make.conf, but doing so is not advised unless you desire the development versions. GTK2 browsers will automatically compile against GTK2 mozilla, and GTK1 browsers (galeon1, galeon1, and galeon1) will automatically compile against GTK1. Again, the only people who will need to take action are those who desire development versions (which are inactive at this time anyway). Those who want GTK1 mozilla-devel must set WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk1 or they will be pleasantly surprised with their very own GTK2 installation on the next update. WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-gtk2 and WITH_MOZILLA=mozilla-devel-gtk2 are still honoured for the time being, but their use is now deprecated. Any new ports are not required to consider their values, and so eventually WITH_MOZILLA _will_ have to be changed. Hopefully galeon2 can catch up to peoples' expectations from galeon1 soon, and we can remove the GTK1 ports altogether. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adam@vectors.cx // adamw@FreeBSD.org // adamw@magnesium.net http://www.vectors.cx
