Hi all,

just had a short look at the FreeBSD web site - they already have ports
for most parts of GNOME so I think it's not worth making our one ones -
they FreeBSD maintainers will take care about this:

Just search for `gnome' here:

	http://www.freebsd.org/ports/

Martin

Yes, but wouldn't it be nice if GNOME compile out of the box on Linux,
NetBSD, OpenBSD and FreeBSD?

I once heard someone mention here:  If it doesn't compile out of the box
on another free unix (other than linux), its a problem of ours.

GNOME does compile out of the box on most Unix systems.

If it fails, you are free to send bug reports and patches (we have
tried to integrate them all so far)
