From bsd.gnome.mk:
# USE_GNOMELIBS - Says that the port uses the GNOME libraries.
# USE_GNOMECTRL - Says that the port uses the GNOME control center.
# USE_GNOME - Says that the port uses the GNOME desktop environment.
# Ports outside of the offical GNOME distribution should probably not be
# using USE_GNOMELIBS or USE_GNOMECTRL, unless they have a very good reason.
# Most GNOME ports require USE_GNOME for the correct remove of directories
# in ${X11BASE}/share/gnome. Ports using GNOME should also have
# USE_X_PREFIX defined.
This port uses the GNOME libraries and doesn't require the control
center or the desktop environment to run. At least I'm assuming
that to be the case. Why isn't this a legitimate use of USE_GNOMELIBS?

How will this break with GNOME 1.4? More importantly why? :)
