Hi fink developers,
I think GNOME2 packages are almost ready for release. Upgrading from
GNOME1
to GNOME2 is an irreversible process, so I'm planning that request
developers
test them first, then if no critical problem found, put them into
unstable
tree (hopefully in next week).
What kind of problem I think *critical* is,
1. Cannot install bundle-gnome-2.x at all.
2. Core applications like gnome-session and gnome-panel does not work.
Especially for gnome-session, it contains configuration conversion
programs from debian and not tested well.
If you interested in testing, please follow instructions below:
1. Backup your GNOME configurations (~/.gnome* ~/.gconf*)
2. Add packages in experimental/msek/gnome2 in Fink's CVS
3. Install GNOME2 packages (installing bundle-gnome is convenient)
4. If you'd like to test configuration conversion, remove ~/.gnome2*.
5. Launch gnome-session. First time you launch gnome-session,
you will be asked whether to convert GNOME1's configuration to
GNOME2's.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
