This build requires snv_78 or greater.

This build is based on GNOME 2.21.4.

Installation Instructions
=========================
1) As root, disable the postrun, dbus, hal and avahi services to avoid install-time
error messages:
# svcadm disable svc:/system/postrun:default
# svcadm disable svc:/system/dbus:default
# svcadm disable svc:/system/hal:default
# svcadm disable svc:/system/avahi-bridge-dsd:default

2) ./install-jds --force --ignore

3) Restart the services
# svcadm enable svc:/system/postrun:default
# svcadm enable svc:/system/dbus:default
# svcadm enable svc:/system/hal:default
# svcadm enable svc:/system/avahi-bridge-dsd:default

Known Issues:
- Firefox 3.0 Beta 2 is in the build but dependent modules were built with Firefox 2.0.0.11. This was done because FF3B2 does not deliver .pc files, breaking the dependent modules. FF2 does deliver these files. The Firefox team are aware of the issue.
- gnome-games was reverted to 2.21.2 (from 2.21.4) because of a bug in the libggz detection code. A fix is being worked on.
