Presenting GNOME 2.12 for FreeBSD. The release is chock full of bug fixes

and new features.  Don't believe me?  Then see for yourself at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.12/notes/en/.

DO NOT USE portupgrade by itself to upgrade to GNOME 2.12.  Instead, use
the gnome_upgrade.sh script from
http://www.marcuscom.com/downloads/gnome_upgrade212.sh.  This script will
circumvent some potential pitfalls users can see if they use portupgrade
by itself.

In keeping with tradition, GNOME 2.12 for FreeBSD comes with a special
splash screen.  The winner of this release's contest is
Dominique Goncalves <dominique.goncalves@gmail.com>.  His splash screen
was inspired by http://art.gnome.org/contests/2.12-splash/83.

 The pkg-config program is used to retrieve information about installed
 libraries in the system. It is typically used to compile and link against one

 pkg-config retrieves information about packages from special metadata files.
 These files are named after the package, with the extension .pc. By default,
-pkg-config looks in the following directories: ${PREFIX}/libdata/pkgconfig,
-${LOCALBASE}/libdata/pkgconfig and ${X11BASE}/libdata/pkgconfig for these
-files; it will also look in the list of directories specified by the
-PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

-The package name specified on the pkg-config command line is defined to be the
-name of the metadata file, minus the .pc extension. If a library can install
-multiple versions simultaneously, it must give each version its own name (for
-example, GTK 1.2 might have the package name "gtk+" while GTK 2.0 has
-"gtk+-2.0").
