It might be up to a week before I start committing Gnome packages. ATM, I've only concentrated on the core section. The last few days, I've been fixing up my auto build scripts. Today I'll start to convert my Gnome build from 26.2 to 26.3. There are still a couple of niggling problems, but they should be fixed soon. One problem is that certain Gnome packages expect dbus to have the same 'sysconfdir' as Gnome, which leads me to a question. Why do we have Gnome 'sysconfdir' set to '/etc/gnome/<version>'? Would there be people out there who would have more than one version of Gnome installed? It would be a lot simpler if 'sysconfdir' was set to /etc. Any thoughts?
I have X install under /usr with the /usr/X11R6 symlink. I am also only testing Gnome under /usr. I will also be adding all the new dependency packages first. The one concern I do have however is policykit. Namely around how the daemon is set up (which I presume there is one). I just cannot find enough documentation on this. Are there any distributions out there that are currently using this? I get the impression that this is still in a beta stage. Finally thank you to everyone for their welcomes.
