extra/pidgin-2.6.4-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.  
  protocols/jabber/auth.c in libpurple in Pidgin 2.6.0, and possibly other
  versions, does not follow the "require TLS/SSL" preference when connecting to
  older Jabber servers that do not follow the XMPP specification, which causes
  libpurple to connect to the server without the expected encryption and allows
  remote attackers to sniff sessions.
      http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3026
  (* Security fix *)
ad/slapt-update-notifier-0.4.1-x86_64-5gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added a doinst.sh to add
  the daemon to the rc.local start up scripts.

patches/gnome-session-2.26.2-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  This package adds the seahorse-agent to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.gnome.  This
  will allow seahorse to act as a GPG agent, and allow to use your gpg keys
  with the GNOME keyring.  The package will install a xinitrc.gnome.new, so
  users will need to move the new script and replace the old one. 
  Thanks to Joel Adamson for pointing out the fact this fell out in the 
  upgrade to Slackware64 13.0.
patches/totem-2.26.4-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.

GSB 2.26.3 x86 is released as stable!  Thanks to everyone who helped with bug
reports and suggestions.  gsb-current will soon be aiming at the brand new
2.80.0 GNOME desktop, but we will continue to maintain 2.26.3 with security
updates.  Enjoy! 
  - The GNOME SlackBuild Team
n/deluge-1.1.9-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added pyxdg to slack-required.  Thanks
  to Derek Cordeiro for pointing out the missing package.
t/mac4lin-theme-1.0-noarch-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Removed msttcorefonts from
  slack-required.  msttcorefonts was moved to extra in source only, since we
  cannot distribute the fonts in a binary package.  Users can still build the
  package themselves if they need the fonts.  
a/gsb-desktop-2.26.3-noarch-6gsb.txz: Rebuilt metapackage.  Added
  gnome-system-monitor, file-roller, evince and gnome-screensaver as default
  packages.  
a/nautilus-2.26.4-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to nautilus-2.26.4.  Upgrade fixes 
  a nasty crash in nautilus-file-management-properties, and improved
  translations.

m/banshee-1-1.4.3-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Fixed a typo in the slack-required.
+--------------------------+
Sat Sep 19 09:12:58 BST 2009
ap/rhythmbox-0.12.5-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to rhythmbox-0.12.5.
+--------------------------+
Fri Sep 18 11:23:27 BST 2009
Hi folks!  We're going to call this set of updates RC2.  Most of the
documentation is done, and packages seem to be quite stable.  GNOME 2.28 looms
on the horizon, so we'd like to get this release finished off so we can move
back into developement. Enjoy, and let us know about any problems you run into!
ap/gnome-screensaver-2.26.1-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added desktop entries so
  that xscreensaver hacks are available to gnome-screensaver, and changed the 
  desktop entry to avoid confusion with xscreensaver.
m/f-spot-0.6.1.2-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to f-spot 0.6.1.2.
ap/system-config-printer-1.0.16-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added notify-python to
  slack-required.  Thanks to Carlos Diogenes for pointing out the missing
  package.
go/gnome-python-extras-2.25.3-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added seamonkey and
  seamonkey-solibs to slack-conflicts.  The gtkmozembed python will fail 
  if the seamonkey libraries are installed, instead of using the libxul in the
  mozilla-xulrunner package.  Thanks to camden for reporting the issue.
+--------------------------+
Mon Sep 14 21:29:42 BST 2009
n/mozilla-xulrunner-1.9.0.13-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Removed both profile.d
  xulrunner.sh and xulrunner.csh scripts.  The doinst.sh already places the 
  library paths in /etc/ld.so.conf, and the scripts set an unneeded (and in 
  the x86_64 package) an incorrect LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment.  Thanks to 
  Martin Vidovic for reporting the bug.  
extra/easytag-2.1.6-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Removed x-directory mime type from
  the easytag.desktop entry to prevent easytag from opening items listed on the
  Places menu in place of Nautilus.  Thanks to byteframe for the solution.
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 10 23:09:17 BST 2009
ap/gnome-power-manager-2.26.4-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Reconfigured.  
  Enabled the switch --enable-legacy-buttons to enable HAL events like
  lid close on laptops.  Thanks to Philip Langdale for suggesting the change.
ad/gslapt-0.5.1b-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  Actually apply the patch to use gksu in the .desktop files. :^)
a/gsb-desktop-2.26.4-noarch-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  Add specific version information for glib2 and gtk+2 to metapackage so
  libraries are upgraded properly;  this should help avoid any missed 
  upgrades during installation.
a/nautilus-2.26.3-x86_64-6gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Applied upstream git patch to fix a
  nasty crash in nautilus-file-management-properties. 
  For more information, see:
    http://git.gnome.org/cgit/nautilus/commit/?id=bf6bfde36bcadf43a39fb095650b7fc78741d62a
a/gnome-menus-xfce-2.26.3-noarch-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  Relative path fix to avoid building package with incorrect directories.
+--------------------------+
Mon Sep  7 18:31:34 BST 2009
extra/pidgin-2.6.2-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.  
  Pidgin libpurple multiple denial of service vulnerabilities, which could
  cause the applications to crash.
      http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-2703
  (* Security fix *)
m/banshee-1-1.4.3-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  Added notify-sharp and mono-zeroconf to slack-required so that DAAP plugin
  and display notifications work by default.
+--------------------------+
Sat Sep  5 14:25:22 BST 2009
ad/gslapt-0.5.1b-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.
  Changed the gslapt.desktop to use gksu.

  Fixed slack-required and removed gtksourceview-sharp.
a/gsb-desktop-2.26.3-noarch-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt metapackage.
  Added gslapt and seahorse to default installation package.
n/telepathy-butterfly-0.5.0-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Added telepathy-python to slack-required.
n/telepathy-salut-0.3.9-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Fixed typo in slack-desc.
+--------------------------+
Fri Sep  4 22:52:08 BST 2009
a/gnome-menus-kde-2.26.3-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Added.
  This allows users to access KDE applications from their GNOME menu.
n/telepathy-gabble-0.8.2-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to telepathy-gabble-0.8.2.
ac/espeak-1.41.01-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Added.
  This package provides voice drivers for Orca and gnome-speech, allowing
  text-to-speech functionality for the GNOME accessibility packages.  Thanks to
  Johnathan Nadeau for mentioning the missing package.
ac/gnome-speech-0.4.25-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt. 
  Now built against the espeak package for the GNOME speak driver.
ooo/gnome-menus-ooo-3.1.1.1-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  The menu file was misplaced, causing the OpenOffice menu not to be displayed.
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep  3 21:37:39 BST 2009
a/gnome-panel-2.26.3-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Fixed a minor typo which prevented the panel default settings to be loaded into
  the gconf tree.
+--------------------------+
Wed Sep  2 15:21:40 BST 2009
l/libsigc++-2.2.4.1-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Removed some documentation, which ended up being more than 90% of the package
  size. 
l/libgc-7.1-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Removed libatomic_ops from slack-required.  This package is no longer offered
  or needed.  Thanks to Carlos Diógenes for reporting the problem.
l/nss-3.12.4-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Added slack-conflicts against seamonkey-solibs.  The nss libraries found in
  Slackware's seamonkey or seamonkey-solibs package will conflict with the
  GNOMESlackbuild nss and xulrunner packages.  If users want to use seamonkey,
  they will need to remove the seamonkey entry in the /etc/ld.so.conf file, and
  rerun ldconfig.  Thanks to byteframe for reporting the problem.
a/gnome-desktop-2.26.3-x86_64-6gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Added libgail-gnome to the slack-required.  This is not a runtime
  requirement, but is searched for by many GNOME applications.  
go/tomboy-0.14.3-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Updated the slack-requireds to include mono-addins and gnome-desktop-sharp.
  Thanks to Carlos Diógenes for reporting the missing requirements.
a/gnome-panel-2.26.3-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Updated doinst.sh to load default panel settings.  This was causing the GNOME
  panel to display nothing on new installations.
go/libgda-4.0.4-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to libgda-4.0.4.
+--------------------------+
Tue Sep  1 09:00:19 BST 2009
extra/pidgin-2.6.1-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.  
  This upgrade fixes libpurple.c, which did not follow the "require TLS/SSL"
  preference when connecting to older Jabber servers that do not follow the
  XMPP specification, which causes libpurple to connect to the server without
  the expected encryption and allows remote attackers to sniff sessions.

ooo/openoffice3-3.1.1.1-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded to openoffice-3.1.1.1.  
  Integer underflow in OpenOffice.org (OOo) before 3.1.1 might allow remote at
  tackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted records in the document table
  of a Word document, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.

  Latest stable version now fully supports the use of webkit as a backend.  
n/webkit-1.1.10-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.  
  We've stopped using the nightly builds from webkit.org and began to use
  "release" (ie, slightly stripped versions of nightly builds) from
  webkitgtk.org.  
ad/sabayon-2.27.91-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Upgraded.  
  This version (finally) works from upstream development work.  It uses
  xorg-server-xephyr in place of the xorg-server-xnest.  
a/gnome-session-2.26.2-x86_64-3gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  
  Modified xinitrc.gnome to no longer use seahores-daemon;  instead this daemon
  now starts up from the xdg autostart directory in /etc/gnome. 
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 17 20:23:22 BST 2009
ooo/openoffice3-3.1.0.6-x86_64-2gsb.txz: Rebuilt.  Added gtk+ widget support.

  once GNOME 2.28 is release.
n/network-manager-applet-0.7.1-x86_64-4gsb.txz: Rebuilt. Added slack-suggests.
ap/gnome-mplayer-0.9.6-x86_64-1gsb.txz: Rebuilt.

Sun Aug 16 12:24:20 BST 2009
Full rebuild of GNOME SlackBuild 2.26.3 for Slackware64 13.0 RC2.  GNOME
SlackBuild has gone under a directory restructuring to bring it more into line
with Slackware's own practice.  All our packages have been assigned to sets
now, along with tagfiles.  This will help us to develop a Slackware type
installer for GNOME SlackBuild as well as still being able to offer a slapt-get
based installation.
