Would anyone be kind enough to make some ebuilds for Gnome-2.12 beta?
I tried to modify the existing ebuilds by adjusting all the version-numbers, but after a while i ran into some Access-Violations.


This is an option that unfortunately appears to have zero chance of inclusion. I've ranted about this on slashdot a few times, posted about it on my blog, and even posted to the gnome developers' mailing list(s). Invariably, this option is met with outright hostility on the part of the devs.Shadow Skill wrote:I'm looking forward to this as well, anyone know if it will be possible to have unique wallpaper for each virtual desktop in 2.12? If its already possible with 2.10 someone please clue me in on how to make it work.

Unfortunately though i cannot get nautilus to run, it crashes immediately.
I emerged it with -uD so i would not miss any dependencies.
Does nautilus work for you?

Hey you do great job man !steevdave wrote:Sorry for any inconveniences, I am still working through the deps, so all help is appreciated. Either PM me here, IM me on AIM (realitycomrades), email me, or leave a comment on my site. Thanks again for testing out these ebuilds.
Also, there IS talk of trying to get this stuff included into Portage! It is just a matter of getting a few certain devs to agree to allow it in the tree.
