I=E2=80=99m still working on the GNOME updates.  I branched them off
core-updates some weeks ago and today I finally succeeded in building
the =E2=80=9Cgnome=E2=80=9D package.  Many of the changes, I assume, will c=
ause a large
number of packages to be rebuilt, so I=E2=80=99d like to merge the changes =
into
core-updates.

I hope this won=E2=80=99t delay our plans for core-updates too much.
