The 4.0 "legacy" API is almost not used by GNOME's libraries. +The bare minimum is the 4.1 API. +I created [.filename]#webkit.mk# for the [.filename]#Mk/Uses# framework, in order to _flavorize_ package:www/webkit2-gtk3[]. +There is an link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275914[ongoing effort], but currently it is too unstable. +Often applications such as Epiphany, mail clients (Geary, Evolution), or the online accounts panel in package:sysutils/gnome-control-center dump core. + +Nonetheless, remainder of desktop is usable and the latest release (44.7) of GNOME Shell is functional. +I have begun sending my first patches for review (as well as those in Bugzilla). + +* link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D43183[D43183] +* link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D43230[D43230] +* link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D43244[D43244] +* link:https://reviews.freebsd.org/D40489[D40489] + +I have also ported the link:https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeFlashback[GNOME Flashback] session module. +It depends on package:x11-wm/metacity[] and package:x11-toolkits/libwnck3[]. + +I also maintain a link:https://codeberg.org/olivierd/freebsd-ports-gnome/wiki[documentation], and we can link:https://codeberg.org/olivierd/freebsd-ports-gnome/src/branch/screenshots[see] various desktops available. + +GNOME 45 is almost finished, except for GNOME Shell extensions. +For this release I will focus on Wayland support (link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=258042[bug #258042] and link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=271836[bug #271836]). + +Tests and patches are welcomed, especially for WebKitGTK. + +Next months I plan to work on: + +* Allowing selecting a session in display manager (gdm), it is regression with our patches. +* Fixing sharing network (VNC, SSH) panel in package:sysutils[gnome-control-center] and backport for link:https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275900[bug #275900]. +* Continuing to update applications and libraries for GNOME 45.
